In soft case. Never used. No box. PDF copy of instructions only unless I can find the original!

These are quite sophisticated given their age. Zoom and tilt heads. Fully working. The zoom range covers FF 28-85.
They were sold with a range of accessories, including a Macro Flash Sensor PW-50M and a (wired) Remote Sensor PW-12S, both of which I have.
The PW-50M consists of a 30cm fibre-optic lead, a 58mm adapter for the front of a lens that the fibre optic head plugs into, plus 49, 52 and 55 step rings for the sensor adapter, plus a metal adjustable cold shoe adapter so the flashgun can be angled towards the subject. Comes in its own case and is boxed.
The PW-12S plugs into the front of a flashgun and the camera hot-shoe. Its cable is approx. 2.4m long, allowing the flashgun to be placed off-camera, closer to the subject.
I’m looking for £25 for each of the accessories, both of which I probably only used once or twice, if at all.
All the above would be +p&p, but I would be more than happy to negotiate prices if guns go with accessories. Complete with manuals, (but only one for the flashguns).

This has a removable sensor that can be mounted on an adapter fixed to the front of a lens for close-up/macro work. Also has a wide angle diffuser that fixes to the front of the flash. I adapted the lead that connects the sensor to the sensor adapter to enable more distance between the flash and subject.
The head can be swivelled from portrait to landscape.
In good working condition, bar three small scratches on the flash ‘glass’. Operating instructions.

I have three AF160 and one AF160S flashguns. No idea what the differences are, but the 'S' seems to sell for a higher price on that well known auction site.
These were bought as part of an abandoned project, the idea being to mount all four around the lens for macro work. I still have the bracket and cables to daisy chain the flash guns together if anyone is interested? Could do a 'bundle' price.
All flashguns were tested this morning (05/03/23) and are fully working
