The compact flash unit AF-180FG is a valuable accessory that not only brings light into dark rooms, but also offers some creative possibilities for image composition, such as bounce flash. It supports the P-TTL function of Pentax Digital SLR and GRIII-series cameras and therefore offers accurate exposure control. The AF-180FG fits to all PENTAX Digital SLR K-System camera bodies and RICOH GR III models Simplified, dial-access operation This flash unit features a simplified operating system that lets the user start flash photography instantly by turning the discharge mode dial, which double-functions as the ON/OFF switch. In addition to the OFF position, this dial provides a choice of four discharge modes: P-TTL auto flash with leading-curtain synchronization and P-TTL auto flash with trailing-curtain synchronization, in both of which the flash’s preliminary emission is detected by the camera’s light sensor to accurately control the main discharge level for proper exposure; and manual flash with full discharge and manual flash with 1/4-level discharge Bounce flash function up to a 135-degree tilt angle The flash head can be adjusted vertically to 10 different angles (-10, 0, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120 and 135 degrees) for bounce flash operation. By bouncing the flash discharge off the ceiling or wall during indoor shooting, the user can soften the subject’s shadow to create more natural, true-to-life portraiture. Wide-angle panel This flash unit has a built-in wide-angle panel on the top of the flash head. If required, it can even be used to illuminate an angle of 98° at close range. Weather proofed The dustproof, weatherproof design with 18 sealing elements throughout the housing, including the hot shoe, makes this compact flash unit suitable for universal use. |
