Barry;
I don't know what the solution is (besides possibly a T45) but I'd like to
just caution about this statement:
"Two T32's=GN64"
This is not true. Guide Number is a measure of distance the flash is capable
of lighting up, assuming some fixed ASA/aperture/shutter speed. 2 T32s will
be able to throw more light on a subject at a distance of 32 meters, but
none of that light will reach a subject at 64 meters.
