Has anyone any experience with using a ring flash on an analog camera? x

Has anyone ever used a ring flash on an analog camera before?

;) I'm just after starting a project which is a series of three diptychs. Each diptych will have a half face portrait (Mine, and the two guys I live with)...and these three half portraits will have a coinciding image of each individuals bed, taken from above. I've been using natural light...

I am currently working on a 3 photo black and white film narrative in which I'm trying to communicate an observation. For the last few years, especially around the "good weather months", I've noticed a growing number of young adults using the steps outside their front/back doors as a social...

That shot made me change my mind =) I think now, I'll still shoot both but heavily rely on Digital. I have a D40 with it's kit lens but that won't do so I'll borrow from my college who unfortunately don't have Nikon bodies or lenses so I'll have to chose an alternative. I've seen the band...
