 TH E STROBONAR 65C

  Triplc Tronsislor Modcls 65C ond P65C
 The Honeywell Strobonar 65C presents an all-time high in tight
 output at a controlled level to make this compact unit the most
 efficient electronic flash unit ever made. combined with the
 new built-in charging circuit, this strobonar combines economy
 and convenience.- The 65C equipped with a set of Honeyweil
 rechargeable Permacad cells completely eliminates the need
 for carrying and changing flashbulbs. The all-new automatic
 cut-off circuit of this triple-transistorized strobonar assures
 you of a consistent amount of light packaged with each flash.
     Simple. to use, the Strobonar 65C is an ideal photographic
 aid for all your pictures   indoors as the primary so-urce of                           - light, and outdoors for fitl light. Itsspeciatly-engineeredlight
 source provides illumination which closely matches daylight
 color films without need for separate filters. This advanced
 design provides evenly-distributed lighting over the fullpicfure
 area for all normal lenses. Its effective exposure of L/L500
 second eliminates the effects of subject and camera movement
 to give you sharp, clear pictures every time. The exposure
 dial shows you just the settings you need, and eliminates the
guesswork and calculations which usually accompnny flash
photography.
    Strobonar 65C operation is economical. One set of the
 rechargeable c-cells or L/2c-cells will give you along period
 of care-free service. Household alternating current alsopro-
vides power for operation as well as for recharging the per-
macad ce1ls.
    The Strobonar 65C is made of the finest components - de-veloped specially for photographic use. with the normal care
usually given all good photo equipment, the 6bC will give you
many years of dependable operation. The strobonar 6bc thrives

Operation
HOlf TO PUT YOUR STROBONAR 65C INTO OPERATION
  Photography is pleasant and rewarding with the easy-to-operate
 65C. A few minutes with this booklet and your new Strobonar
  will assure you of better pictures. Abbreviated outlines for
  both battery and AC operation areprovidedasconvenient check
  lists. Use them only after you read and understand the more
  detaited information on operation of the 65C in the paragraphs
  which follow.
  ELECTRONIC FLASH
  Some idea of how the Strobonar 65C works will be of assistance
  to you in taking pictures. The 65C is an electronic flash unit
  which depends on a capacitor in which energy from batteries
  or alternating current is stored. When the unit has not been
  used for a few days or longer, the capacitor starts to "deform"  and more than normal amounts of energy will be used with the
   first few flashes. Alternating current is, of course, the most
  economical means of restoring this energy (known as "forming"
  the capacitor) and will save your batteries for additional pic-
  tures. For this reason, whenever you are goingto use the Stro-
  bonar 65C after an inactive period of morethan a few days, set
  itforAC operation(be sure yan haue remoued non-rechargeable
  dry cells from the battery compartment) andflashthe unit nine
  or ten times either with the cameraorwith the Honeywell 53-1
  Manual Tripprng Cord (Catalog No. 4041, a very useful item of
   optional equipment. At this same time, the alternating current
   is also recharging the Strobonar's nickel-cadmium rechargeable
  C -cells, the ideal way to keep your unit ready to go.
  CAME RA-FLASH SYNCH RONI ZATION
  The Strobonar 65C is designed for use with cameras having
  built-in flash contacts. If your camera has abetween-the-lens
  shutter withX-contacts (zero delay), the 65C wiII synchronize
  with it at all speeds. If your camerahas a focal-plane shutter
  withX-synchronization,  itwill synchronize only at slower speeds
    generally up to L/25 or L/60 second. (See Shutter Speeds,  -  Page 22, and your camera instruction manual.) Mostcameras
  without built-in X-synchronization (zero delay) can be easily
  adapted for the 65C by a competent camera repairman.  If you
  wish to check the synchroniZation yourself, see instructions on
  page 23.

  AC POWER OPERATION
  AC power is an economical means of operating your Strobonar
  65C and is especially suited for indoor photography. Although
   battery operation of the 65C gives more consistent light output,
  AC operation does offer the advantage ofpermittingyou to take
   pictures at the same time that your rechargeable cells are being
  charged. You may find this method of operation particularly
   convenient when your cells were not stored rvith their full
   charge. AC operationis alsousefulfor anespecially long series
   of flash pictures where rapid cycling and maximum light output

 may not be required.  Non-rechargeable cells may be
 destroyed by the AC chargi.ng operation and should be
 remoued before operati.ng on AC power.
 The strobonar 65c is designed to operate from a 117-volt
 source of 60 cycle alternating current, standard in most
 u.s. localities. Just connect the line cord to your stro-
 bonar and plug the other end into a wall outlet. The switch
 has two positions, "BATT, and,(OFF-ACtt, as shownin
 the switch opening. The unit would not be damaged if the                                             ,BATT',AC cord were connected when the switch is in the  ,
position - you would merely be operating from batterypower instead of AC.

 BATTERY OPERATION
Batteries are the ideal power supply for the strobonar
65c. In addition to providing maximum light output and
rapid cycling time, battery operation permits complete
freedom of movement for both indoor and outdoor shots.
The strobonar 65c uses four L/ zc-cells   preferabry                                                -the rechargeable nickel-cadmium type (Honeywerl c ata-
log No. 528)   or three C-cells, also of the recharge-               -able type (catalog No. 5271. with the self-contained
battery charging feature of the 6bc, the Honeywell per-
macad high-performance rechargeable nickel-cadmium
cells are recommended. Either the c-size or the L/zc-
size cells will provide the ultimate in battery operation.
Magnesium - alkaline cells (Eveready E-g3, MalloryMn-1400, or equivalent) will also give dependableperformance
and are available at alt camera shops and most stores
where photo supplies are sold. Be sure the cerls you
purchase are fresh by asking the dealer to test them.
standard photoflash c -cells may be used for casual pic-
ture sessions when rapid cycling time is not of import-
ance and when only a few flashes wiII be used.

                                                      Operation
 To install all types of c-cells, press the front of the.two
 battery compartment releases and withdraw the compart-
 ment. Insert the three cellswiththe                                "+" ends positioned
 as shown by the label in the compartment. you will notice
 that the two outside cells are positioned with their .3+r,
 ends toward the rear of the strobonar and the middle cell
 with its " +" end toward the front.
To install the small, faster cycling L/2C-cells, placetwo
 of these cells in each outside position. Be sure all the'"+"     ends are positioned towardthe rear of the strobonar,
 as shown by the label in the compartment. In the center
 position, place the c- size dummy battery to complete the
 circuit for operation with ttre t/ ZC-ceIls.
 Replace the battery compartment in the unit and push
 forward until the release springs snap into place, locking
 the compartment in the unit. Your strobonar 6bc is now
 ready for pictures.  If, however, your unit has been out
 of use for a few days, form the capacitor on AC as de-
 scribed on page 11 to conserve your cells. Be sure, of
 course, that you form the capacitor on AC before you in-
 stall Energizer or other non-rechargeable cells in the
unit. Then push the switch to the  ' 'BATT, position (where
"BATT" shows in the switch window) and wait for the
Ready-Light to glow.
When Ready-Light glows, the 65C maybe fired(supplying
light within U>t/stop of maximum available). For full llght
capacity with absolutely uniform output, wAIT for audible
cycling signal to stop. constant readiness withmaximum
light output is evidenced by occasional audible ,.beep.,,

longer than one or two minutes betweenpictures, turn off
the unit to prevent unnecessary drain on your cdlls. TO
SAFEGUARD YOUR STROBONAR FROM THE BAT-
TERY CORROSION THAT SOMETIMES RUINS FLASH-
LIGHTS, REMOVE ANY NON-RECHARGEABLE BAT-
TERIES WHEN STORING THE UNIT FOR ANY EX-
TENDED LENGTH OF TIME - such as SOdaysormore.The high light output provided by the Strobonar 65C de-
mands the use of heavy-duty batteries. While fresh magne-
sium-alkaline cells will give satisfactory service, they
should be used primarily in emergencies or when only a
few flashes will be needed. Since the cost of these cells is
relatively low, we suggest that these cells be replaced
whenever the unit has been out of use for a period of
months, or when you are uncertain of their condition.)
FEATURES OF PERMACAD CELLS
Honeywell Permacad C - cells and L/ZC - cells are re-
chargeable nickel-cadmium cells. The Strobonar 65C
uses 3 of the C-cells, or 4 of the L/ZC-cells with a C-size
dummy battery. One set of these cells, which are re-
charged with the built-in charger in the unit, will give a
long life of convenient and economical service. Your
preference may be for the rapid-cycling L/ ZC-cells or
for the greater number of flashes per charge provided by
the C-cells which are only slightly slower in cycling. The
L/2C-cells wili cycle in 6 to L2 seconds, ffid will provide
40 to 65 flashes from each full charge when the unit is
flashed once a minute. Fully-charged C-cells will cycle
in 9 to 15 seconds to provide 100 to L25 flashes. The
cells may be charged as often as necessary, and when
stored in a fully-charged condition, mayholdtheir charge
up to several months. Make it a standard practice to
give the cells a full charge before storing them.

 CHARGING PERMACAD CELLS
 The strobonar 65c with its built-in charging circuit is
 designed to charge three Permacad c-cells orfour L/zc-
 cells without removing them from the unit. Just use the
 Ac cord furnished with the strobonar to connect the unit
 to any household Ac outlet. Be sure the switch is in the
 OFF-AC position. The unit may be left plugged in over-
 night and the cells will usually take a maximum charge in
 20 to 24 hours. If the strobonar 6bc has loeen stored
 with the switch in the 33BATT', position, it may take
 72 hours to fully recharge the cells. To hrrn off the
 charging circuit, disconnect the cord from the walr
 outlet. The built-in charger of the strobonar 65c
 is a feahre every photographer wilt appreciate.

 IMPORTANT   I
whenever the strobonar 65c has been out of use for even
a few days, plug the unit into a waII outlet for about five
minutes, ffid flash itnine ortentimes on AC, using either
the camera flash contacts or the Honeywell manual tripping
cord 53-1. If a week or more has elapsed since the unit
was last used, form for 15 minutes or until the Ready-
Light comes on in 15 seconds or less on AC. Flashing
the unit several times onACwillbringthe unit up to peak
efficiency by forming the capacitor andwill conserve your
cells.


READY-LIGHT
The Ready-Light indicates thatthe strobonar 6bc is ready
for operation and assures you of a consistent amount of
light with each flash. with the capaeitor fully formed, as
described above, turn the unit on and wait for the Ready-

Light to appear.
When Ready-Light glows, 65C may be fired (supplying
light within tlZ t/stop of maximum available). For full
Iight capacity with absolutely uniform output, WAIT for
audible cycling signal to stop. Constant readiness with
maximum light output is evidenced by occasional audible t tbeep."
(NOTE: AC operation does notutilize audible signal).
When the capacitor is fully formed, the Ready- Light should
appear in 6 toL2 secondswith t/ZC-cells, 9 to 15 seconds
with C-cells, or ? to 30 seconds on AC. When operating
on AC with a line voltage of less than 107 volts, the unit
will be ready to flash after 30 seconds, but the Ready-
Light may not glow. When operating with non-recharge-
able batteries, I progressively longer time will be requir-
ed as the batteries are depleted; a condition which the
Ready-Light signals by taking longer to glow.

EXPOSURE DIAL
Another feature for your convenience is the strobonar
65C exposure dial. This easy-to-use calculator gives
you,the f/stop setting for lamp-to-subject distance when
the 65C is used as the main source of light. Simply set
the exposure dial so the exposure index for the film you
are using aligns withthe point of the Ready-Light opening.
Read the proper lens opening opposite the lamp-to-subject
distance on the dial.
EXAMPLE: Suppose the film you are usinghas an expos-
ure index (ASA rating) of 80. This index is printed on the
information sheet packaged with the film.  Set the expos-
ure index 80 on the dial at the pointer. The lamp-to-
subject distance is 12 feet. Opposite L2 feet on the dial
you find the proper lens opening is f/11.
    For AC operation, determine the exposure as de-
scribed above, then open up one f/stop. Or, you may find
it more convenient to divide the exposure index for the
film you are using by 2; set this number on the exposure
dial; and read the f/stop directly opposite the distance.
    With the 65C's handy exposure dial, no,calculations
are required to determine the exposure for films with
exposure indexes as high as 400. For Films of higher
speeds, divide the film speed by two (or four, or eight,
etc.) to obtain an index of 400 or less. Take readings
from the scale as described above; then stop down one
f/stop if you divided by two, two f/stops if youdivided by

STROBONAR MODEL P65C
The Model P65C Strobonar serves both as aunitized elec-
tronic flash with all the features of the standard Model
65C, and as a powerpacktoprovide AC or battery opera-
tion for the Honeyvell Prox-O-Lite. Used as a power
pack, thc P65C may be mounted right onthe camera with
your usual mounting bracket for complete freedom of
movement; or the unit ffi&Y, of course, be laid to one side.
The special outlet on the side of the P65C's head is pro-
vided with a protective cover which should be in place
when the Prox-O-Lite is notconnectedtotheunit. Oper-
ation of the Model P65C as an electronic flash unit is
identical to the operation described inthisbookletfor the
standard Model 65C Strobonar.
    To use the Model P65C as apowerpack for the Prox-
O-Lite, first mount the Prox-O-Lite on the camera. Re-
movethe cover fromthe P65C outlet, and insert the plug of
the Prox-O- Lite power cord. Secure the plug in the outlet
by screwing on the lcrurled rhg, but do not oaertighten.
Connect the shutter cord from the camera to the Prox-
O-Lite. Be sure to use the X-contacts (zero delay) or
set the shutter for X-slmchronization, and select a suit-
able shutter speed.
    For battery operation, place the P65C's selector
switch in the 'dBATT" position, ffid the Prox-O-Lite's
Ready-Light will indicate when ready to flash. Conserve
your cells by turning off the r.urit when more than one or
two minutes will elapse between pictures.
    For AC operation, leave the unit's selectorswitchin
                      Use the AC cordto connect thethe "OFF-AC" position.

SERIES 55 LENS KIT
The 65 Series Lens Kit features interchangeable lenses
which ad;ri.rt the Strobonar for various picture situ-
ations. The kit contains four special lenses and a re-
tainer ring, all neatly packed into a compact, protective
case. To mount a 'lens on the 65C, place the lens, with
the raised rim facing forward, over the Strobonar's
standard lens. Then slip the retainerringoverthe Stro-
bonar's nose ring.
   THE LENS FOR USE WITH KODACOLOR FILM
is a salmon-colored lens which converts the normal day-
light balance of the Strobonar to that of clear flashbulbs,
providing a proper color balance for use indoors with
Kodacolor film.  This lens may also be used with Type
F reversal color film, although daylight-type color rever-
sal films are usually recommended for use with electronic
flash. No exposure compensation is necessary for this lens.
   THE WIDE-ANGLE LENS distributes the Strobonar's
light over a wider-than-normal area to illuminate wide-
angle pictures. When mounting this lens on the 65Co be
sure that the smooth side of the lens faces outward. Be-
cause the wide-angle lens reduces the intensity of the
Strobonar's light, it is necessary to increase the normal
exposure by one full f/stop.
   THE LENS FOR USE WITH POLACOLOR FILNFiS
especially designed to produce beautifully exposed pic-
tures with Polaroid color film.  Light-yellow in color,
this lens converts the normal daylight balance of the
65C Strobonar to that of recommended blue flash-
bulbs, providing the correct balance for indoor use of
Polacolor film.

multiply the flash-to-subject distance by four before read-
ing the f/stop. EXAMPLE: If you are using Ansco-
chrome (Exposure Index 32) and your Strobonar is two
feet from the subject, use 8 as the distance (4 x 2 feet)
and read the correct aperture of  f./ LL on the dial.

MOUNTING THE 65C ON YOUR CAMERA
Honeyvell manufactures the finest line of mounting
brackets, clamps, and other flash accessories available.
Illustrated are a few of the ways of mounting the Strobonar
65C on various cameras. For snap-on mounting, which
permits instant release of the unit for off-camera flash,
use the Honeywell Quick-Release Clamp, CatalogNo.308,
with one of these brackets:

      Then insert the 65C's handle intothe clamp ring from the
      top nntil the handle extends at least t/ 4 inch below the
     clamp block. Tighten the Phillips head mounting screw
       (located in the recess of the clamp block just above the
       spring) just enough to prevent slipping. Be sure that the
      carnera arm is parallel to the lens of the Strobonar. To
       fold the bracket, pull the camera arm straight out from
      the clamp to clear the horizontal slots. Fold the arm
     upward and release the spring tension. The arm will then
    move freely to its folded position. When using this
      bracket, do not attempt to unfold the arm beyond theI      horizontal stop provided.

    Select the proper Honeywell shutter cord for con-
necting the 65C to your camera. Some cords produced
by other manufacturers have a high carbon content in the
jacket which may cause the unit tofailto fire, or to self-
fire intermittently, and should not be used. You may
choose a l2-inch cord for on-camera use, or you may
desire the versatility of a coiled cord for both on-and
off-camera flash. Your Hone5rwell photo dealer will be
happy to assist you in selecting the proper mounting
combination and connecting cord for your camera.
