A flash attachment. Some had a brand name, like Cube. Had 4 flash bulbs, small ones, that rotated as the camera user took pictures. The film was 12 or 20 pictures. -- Jim

The definition of "electronic flash" predates discos. But it's still used in the context of (expensive, powerful) studio gear. What I remember as a strobe (more or less the size and packaging like a flash gun) seems to now be called a speedlight. At least, in the US. Dunno what the terminology was/is across the water.

Google "strobist" and you'll find a community dedicated to the use of such equipment as off-camera flash. However Canon uses "speedlight" on their Web site. However studio flash isn't all that expensive. A Canon 600EX is about 500 bucks. A Paul C. Buff Einstein goes for about the same. Of course you can get fancier and more expensive but there are few studio situations a set of Einsteins won't handle.

There are actually four official languages in Switzerland: German, French, Italian and Romansh. Most people who speak German in Swizerland speak Swiss German, fewer speak Swiss Standard German. > How do they handle spelling > differences? There are only very few (plus a few words which are different). The only difference I know is that Swiss Standard German does not use the ß (sharp s), using ss instead. There is no commonly agreed form to write Swiss German, people use Swiss Standard German instead.

Although I don't know if they can withstand a "real" country surrounding them once Europe becomes one country, making them an enclave. Funny btw. that there is one German town completely surrounded by Switzerland called Büsingen <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%BCsingen_am_Hochrhein>. Interesting things happen. Although it's a German town and part of the European Union it's not part of the European customs territory. And although the Euro is the official currency, like in the rest of Germany and most of Europe, people usually pay with Swiss Francs. > but there are differences among Swiss, Austrian, and German German.

I suppose written German German and Austrian German is the same. Swiss German uses "ss" instead of "ß" in Germany. Thus there are only slight differences in documents. But speaking and understanding is an entirely different thing: People from northern Germany might have problems understanding Swiss people. But they already have problems understanding people from Bavaria, which is in Germany. Thus if any German writes something (in German) anyone from Austria or Switzerland will be able to read and understand it. And vice versa. -- Andreas PGP fingerprint 952B0A9F12C2FD6C9F7E68DAA9C2EA89D1A370E0

Well, they don't have much of a fishing industry to screw over, so that's already a competitive advantage.

Despite German coming far closer to spelling things as they are pronounced than English, only a few years ago, they decided it was necessary to change how German was spelled. Except for continuing to eschew the eszet, the Swiss (and, for that matter, the Austrians) agreed to participate in the spelling reform along with Germany. So apparently German spelling is largely uniform across the German-speaking countries, even if it is at variance with the spelling of the great bulk of literature written in the German language. Which is, of course, one major reason why the English-speaking world has so far resisted calls for the reform of its spelling, however flawed it may be. John Savard

That is true, but the changes were small - so small that I thought it was not really worth it to go to all the trouble of a reform for so litte. A _big_ reform would have changed the spelling of "Physik" (physics) to "Füsik". However, it is likely that physicis would have thrown bricks through the windows of their germanist colleagues at university, so they didn't change that.

Otherwise you mostly see it in niche applications, like the NATO phonetic alphabet. It has "Alfa" for A, which I think had something to do with certain NATO languages having difficulties with "ph" being pronounced as "f". Alfa is also the NATO designation for a rather interesting class of Soviet submarine.
