Your subject in the best possible light

Brilliant light for the perfect moment.

Your subject in the best possible light.

Using a flash no longer simply means making a dark subject lighter. Anyone using additional light when taking a shot can creatively manipulate the light to suit their requirements – aiming it directly at the subject, indirect flash with a reflector, or even flash “without constraints” with devices that can be used independently of the camera.

Many Metz flash units make it possible to calibrate light levels, weighting them as desired to deliver just the right mood lighting. Even by day, the right flash can deliver better photos; brightening shadows or contre-jour to give pictures undreamt of sharpness and brilliance.

High guide number, high light output.

An integrated flash normally has a guide number of around 12 (ISO 100/21°). That means that a maximum distance of around 2m can be sufficiently lit with f-stop 5.6. In comparison, an average system flash with a guide number of 50 and the same light sensitivity could provide superb results up to a distance

of 9m. Under the same conditions, a high-performance unit with a guide number of 76 can easily illuminate objects as far as 13m away.
