In fact, I've never quite been convinced by any claims for active systems that are triggered by the gatso flash. The system would have to do whatever it's trying to do in the time remaining between the flash hitting it and the camera's shutter closing. Anybody know this time (Messer)? Say 1/25th of a second? And, the active system would have to be able to do it's stuff for as long as it's needed to be effective.
So, let's say if the active system's aim is to flash it's own light at the Gatso to bleach the negative then it's going to have to do this within the 1/25th of a second including the delay in the system's electronics: Detect Gatso flash -> activate system's return flash -> keep flash lit for sufficient time to bleach negative. All this in 1/25th of a second sounds like a tall order to me. But then maybe somebody with better knowledge might prove me wrong.
