Metz 50 AF-1 Digital Nikon Fit Flashgun

£180.00

The Metz 50 AF-1 Digital is the evolution of the 48 AF-1 digital, winner of the TIPA Award for “best photographic accessory 2008”. The elegant housing can be mounted onto the camera hotshoe via the new metal base and fixed in place quickly and easily with a single movement thanks to the optimised lock system. The guide number has been increased to 50 (ISO 100/21° at105mm) and performance has been further optimised through improvements to the high output flash tube. Moreover, the flash has been equipped with a servo flash release, via the camera’s internal flash which works independently of the camera’s master function. Even the wide-angle diffuser has been improved and is now suitable for illumination of wide-angle focal lengths from 12mm (135 format). Future firmware upgrades are facilitated by the built-in USB port. More

Metz 50

By Philip

from Birmingham

Pros

Solid powerful simple

Cons

No soft case

Best Uses

Indoor

Solid, well built and powerful flash. A huge upgrade from my SB400. I needed something that I could use to photograph in places like churches. I have no doubt that this can do the job.The diffuser and reflector do a good job if you don't have something better to use already. However I found it a little tricky to take out and put back. I assume this is standard with all lenses though & I struggle with fiddly things more than most people. I would have liked it to come with a case to store it in though.Overall highly recommended.[@]
