Hi,
   that's where any OTF metering camera (Oly OM2/3/4, LX) shines :)
   set a really small f/stop, set on auto, and flash away. Probably
   several bracketed frames would be needed, as it's centerweighed
   metering only, but it should work well, no? The auto setting will
   first choose a really long time, than, after several flashes, it
   will shut itself off.

Actually, I was thinking of getting an beat-up Olympus OM2 with one
lens just for this application (now I don't have to, I have lx <g>)

Good (painted) light,
