Does anybody use the Alien Bee ABR800 ring flash simultaneously with other brand flash units? If so, do you notice an unacceptable color shift with the ABR800 when used at low power, say 1/32? I'm thinking of buying this model, but want to check first if others have a problem with color temp. I bought the AB1600 standard strobe a few years back and it had a magenta cast at the lowest settings. I don't want that to happen to me again.

I think that's something that happens with all AB strobes... and I'm sure others as well
