Metz 54 AF-1 Digital Shoe Mount Flash

Metz mecablitz 54 AF-1
digital for Canon, Konica
Minolta, Nikon Maximum power
from a small unit One can
hardly realize how much
power is packed into this
compact Metz 54 series flash
unit. The flash was
specifically developed for
the current range of digital
and analog cameras from
leading manufacturers.
Three versions are
available: Metz mecablitz54
AF- 1C digital compatible
for the Canon EOS and the
PowerShot series, Metz
mecablitz54 AF-1M digital
for Konica Minolta system
cameras and Metz mecablitz
54 AF-1N digital compatible
for Nikon digital cameras,
including the D 70.
Completely up-to-date The
Metz mecablitz 54 AF-1
digital represents the
current state-of-the-art in
flash technology. New
internal precision metering
methods ensure perfect flash
exposures depending on the
given model - from E-TTL for
Canon, to D-TTL, 3D/D-TTL
and i-TTL or i-TTL-BL for
Nikon, to ADI flash exposure
metering for Konica Minolta
Dīmage. Moreover, simple
operation heightens the fun
in flash photography.
But the Metz mecablitz 54
AF-1 digital also stands for
more sophisticated use of
flash with short recycling
times, modeling light, three
partial light output levels
and second curtain
synchronization -
indispensable for
controlling light effects on
moving objects.
Depending on the camera
model, TTL exposure
correction covers up to
three apertures, both in the
plus and minus ranges (in
one-third increments).
