Sony HVLF43M High Power Flash with Quick Shift Bounce Essentials Bundle

The Sony HVL-F43AM Digital Camera Flash provides Sony Alpha camera users with many features: it extends the illumination range beyond the camera's built-in flash, offers TTL (through the lens) flash exposure that's automatically controlled by your Sony Alpha DSLR for easy and intuitive operation, has adjustable bounce angles and it's dust- and moisture-resistant. It's ideal for portraits, weddings and special events, still-life photography, hobby shots and every-day photography. The ultra-compact design folds flat when not in use.

Features:

• High-power illumination: High-power illumination
• Longer effective range: Longer effective range of over 30 ft. (10.5m)
• Quick Shift Bouncem: The innovative "Quick Shift Bounce" system allows the HVL-F43M to orbit 90 degrees left and right, allowing you to maintain horizontal light distribution even when shooting vertically. In addition to pivoting side-to-side, the flash unit can also tilt down 8 degrees or back 150 degrees
• Wireless flash, bounce flash, modeling flash and multi-burst functions
• Wireless lighting ratio control for smooth, professional effects with up to three flash groups (with DSLR-A900/850/700)
• Versatile bounce angles: Versatile bounce angles: 90? up, 90? left. This allows the flash head to be rotated while maintaining the set bounce angle, so you can quickly switch between horizontal and vertical format without changing the light angle.
• Built-In Bounce sheet: The built-in bounce sheet can be used even when shooting in a vertical position without changing the angle of reflected light.
• Auto white balance: Auto white balance (signals color temp. to camera)
• Auto zoom: Auto zoom optimized for camera sensor size
• Dust and Moisture resistant design: Sealing materials are set at joints of outer materials (body, LCD panel, Mounting Foot etc.) and around movement/operating parts thereby increasing the life of your flash unit.
• Modeling light capability: Modeling light capability allows the HVL-F43M to pulse, helping photographers determine where shadows will fall before taking the picture, so they can alter lighting or subject positioning as necessary.
• Retractable wide-angle panel: Retractable wide-angle panel (15mm angle)
• Wireless Ratio Control: Wireless Ratio Control allows customers to wirelessly control up to three groupsof flashes, as well as specify the luminosity ratio for each group, so they can enjoy multiple-flash lighting techniques without the need for special equipment or tedious exposure settings.
• Simple controls: Simple controls, test button, power saving mode
• TTL metering: TTL metering capability, high-speed sync
• Fast recharging: Fast recharging -- up to 38% quicker than HVL-F36
