Konica - Minolta 2500D Dedicated Program Flash for Maxxum I AF

This affordable flash unit is characterized by powerful, automatic performance and is compatible with all Minolta Maxxum Single Lens-Reflex (SLR) film cameras, the Minolta DiMAGE series of digital cameras including the new Minolta DiMAGE A1and DiMAGE Z1 digital cameras.

When used in combination with Minolta's D series lenses and Advanced Distance Integration (ADI) compatible camera bodies such as the Maxxum 4, Maxxum 5 and Maxxum 7, the Minolta Program/Maxxum Flash 2500 (D) uses the sophisticated ADI metering system for controlling flash exposures. With conventional flash metering, dark or highly reflective subjects can deceive the metering system and cause over or underexposure. To reduce influence from subject or background reflectance, ADI metering uses distance information from Minolta D series lenses with TTL (through the lens) metering to control the flash output.

The Program/Maxxum Flash 2500 (D) has a bounce flash head that can be tilted between 0° and 90°. This can be used to create soft, indirect lighting in interiors by reflecting the flash off the ceiling.
