With Metz mecablitz digital into the future

The flexibility of Metz mecablitz units can be seen in the different flash families. They have the respective functional equipment to go along with the different requirements profiles. In principle, there are the following groups:

System flash units

SCA flash units

With System flash units, using a flash is a great deal of fun. Thanks to their being highly-developed and fully automatic, you only have to attach the flash, and away you go. System flash units are available in different versions. In this way, they provide a specific connection for a specific brand of camera, with which it works together perfectly. The best examples are the Metz mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital, which was awarded “Best Flash Unit in Europe 2007/2008”*, or the Metz mecablitz 48 AF01 digital, which received the coveted Tipa Award 2008 in the category Best Accessory.

Cameras can change, but not Metz! The unique special feature of Metz SCA flash units is that one and the same flash unit can be used with different cameras – it doesn’t matter whether they are digital or analog. By simply replacing the adapter, system cameras of different manu- facturers can be used. Flash units with SCA adapters are particularly good for reflex cameras, because they offer the richest array of special functions. Of course, the SCA modules are also suitable for cameras from many other manufacturers, because of the adapters available.
