Best Accessory 2008

Having just been awarded the cove- ted “Tipa Awards 2008” in the cate- gory Best Accessory, the Metz meca- blitz 48 AF-1 digital is stylish and tech- nically advanced. Equipped with a USB port for firmware updates via In- ternet, it has shown itself to be just as innovative as its big brother the

58AF-1 digital, which has been singled out as “Europe’s Flash Unit of the Year 2007/2008”*. Perfectly matched to digital cameras from lea- ding manufacturers, it is available in five different versions (Canon, Nikon, Olympus/Panasonic, Pentax/ Samsung or Sony Alpha) - each is

flash-ready, due to its fully automatic flash modes. They facilitate precision light output is tailor-made for each individual subject. A variety of manual intervention options complement the photographic creative flexibility. Sup- ported by a fully swivelling reflector system, extendible reflector card and diffuser, it has almost unlimited options for creativity of directional lighting. Thanks to the slave function, the 48 AF-1 digital can even be used deta- ched from the camera. In the respec- tive camera-specific wireless TTL mode, it can thus be used as a slave unit - an outstanding flash unit for committed amateur photographers.
