You'd have to set the T-32 on one of it's auto modes and meter the setup
with a flash meter (or do tests with some chrome). This would give you an
f-stop to use at 1/60 sec synch speed. Sorry, no auto-exposure for you on
this one. If you put the camera body/T-32 on TTL-auto, the slaved flash
will add too much light and swamp the picture.
You might have some issues with ambient light balancing though. It looks
like some experimentation is in order.

Hi
Yet another T32 Flash question....
I've a OM2n with a T32.
I've just bought myself a cheap, low powered studio flash - supposedly with
a GN of 36 @100asa.
In the summer we sometimes have barbecue parties that last well into the
evening, and assuming it isn't raining are normal in the garden. I was
thinking that maybe if I stuck this studio flash on a tall stand and used
the T32 on auto, (mounted on the camera with OM2n also on auto) it would
help relieve the "in-a-cave" effect that I normally get using my setup out
of doors. It has a built in slave so there'd be no problem getting it to
fire.
Has anyone tried this sort of thing? I would imagine it'd be difficult
getting the relative light outputs "in balance", but how would the auto
exposure cope with this ?
