For committed amateur photographers
High performance and future-proof
The successor to the Best Accessory
“Tipa 2008” award-winning mecablitz
48 AF-1 digital has been launched
with a new high quality metal base
which allows quick and easy attach-
ment to the respective camera. The
mecablitz 50 AF-1 digital has all the
right technological features too, includ-
ing numerous application possibilities
and even higher performance levels
(guide number 50). Equipped with a
USB interface for online firmware
updates, its innovative and future-proof
credentials are proven. It is available
in five versions, each one perfectly
tailored to a digital camera by one of
the leading manufacturers (Canon,
Nikon, Olympus/Panasonic, Pentax
or Sony ADI) – all of which are rapid
response due to their fully automatic
flash modes. These permit precise
light output tailored to each individual
subject. Numerous manual fine tuning
options extend your creative photo-
graphic freedom. Virtually limitless
possibilities are opened up for creative
lighting thanks to a fully swivelling
reflector system which also contains a
flip-out reflector card and a diffuser.
The slave function allows the 50 AF-1
digital to be used “without con-
straints”. In the respective camera-
specific wireless TTL mode it can even
be used as a slave device. With
built-in camera flash, wireless applica-
tions are available in servo mode.
A superb flash unit for committed ama-
teur photographers.
