METZ Mecablitz 24 AF-1 Digital Flashgun - OLYMPUS & PANASONIC

The METZ Mecablitz 24 AF-1 Digital Flashgun is Metz's smallest system flash unit with guide number 24 for ISO 100/21 deg and 35 mm focal length provides flash novices with better illumination in their photos than given with the integrated camera flash. It means you can also use creative lighting effects such as bouncing flash in the picture composition. The Metz mecablitz 24 AF-1 digital is perfectly tailored to Canon.

The 90 deg swivel reflector on the Metz mecablitz 24 AF-1 provides bouncing flash in enclosed areas. There is an LED display on the reverse of the device showing whether the flash is ready and if the photo is correctly lit. In back light situations applications such as fill-in flash pose no problem for the Mecablitz 24 AF-1 digital. The flash can also function as a focusing tool in difficult lighting conditions because of the integrated AF flash metering.
