Al,
In anticipation I have downloaded the manuals for SB25 and SB26. Historically the range is SB24 - 1988, SB25 replaced the 24 in 1992 and the SB26 replaced the 25 in 1994.
Benefits over the SB22 are higher guide number of 36 ( more power ) , swivel & tilt flash head and variable power output in manual mode. Big bonus is that all three will take the Stofen Diffuser code OM-C £15:95 at Warehouse Express. This diffuser is the business and needs to be included in the budget.
From a look at these specs it seems I may have been a bit optimisic as to flash duration of the SB22 in MD mode.
Here are the flash duration numbers for SB25 & SB26
1/1,000 sec at full output
1/1,100 sec at 1/2 output
1/2,500 sec at 1/4 output
1/5,000 sec at 1/8 output
1/8,700 sec at 1/16 output
1/12,000 sec at 1/32 output
1/23,000 sec at 1/64 output
