edge secondary reflector technology, high-performance energy management, the
latest generation of multi-zone AF measurement flash, full bounce/swivel,
special functions, and much more.
The new Metz top-of-the-line model is available as an ideal complement for
Panasonic/Olympus DSLR cameras (58 AF-1 OP), Pentax/Samsung cameras (58 AF-1 PS)
in addition to Canon (58 AF-1 C digital) and Nikon camera (58 AF-1 N digital).
Due to its high GN of 191 (ft.) at ISO 100/21and 105 mm focal length, the 58
AF-1 digital is not only especially powerful but also can be used for indirect
flash lighting to great effect. For the first time Metz integrated a reflector
card that can be flipped open into its vertically tilting and horizontally
swiveling reflector.
