I thought this would better here than in the 'flash' forum.
Nice! I have one, too; with leather case and it would be nice to find the mains adaptor.

Is that a Pentax case the camera is sitting on?

There are no names on the case.
It is red velvet lined,there is a compartment for the K135 and 50 and the camera.
Perhaps it could be Pentax.
I'm amazed the flashgun still works considering the age (1971)

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Your joking right?
It's a keeper in anyone's book. I've never seen one of these before but it's got character, originality and a PENTAX name on the side.
Exclusivity comes to mind (without broadcasting the fact).
An elegant piece of kit in my opinion and although I cannot speak for you, I personally would just hang on to it and use it, as Kris does, from time to time.
Best regards.

The other nice thing about them is that they cover a 24mm lens (on 35mm film)

I still use mine, complete with its case.I'm still looking for the AC adapter.
28mm will be no problem, 24mm only the outer corners suffer from a little loss of light

Just wondered if anybody has any experience with this flashgun.
I may sell it if anybody is interested.
