Due to its high GN of 58 at ISO 100/21° and 105mm 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. In addition, the Bounce diffuser 54-23 is avilable as an optional accessory.
Using the integrated secondary reflector, additional brilliance can be achieved with this flash technology in close-up areas. The integrated slave trigger unit allows the 58 AF-1 to be implemented separately.
An additional plus for all those who want to use the 58 AF-1 digital apart from the camera: the new flash can be used wirelessly with the Canon E-TTL remote system and the Nikon i-TTL remote system, thanks to the integrated slave trigger unit.
58 AF-1 C digital: offers E-TTL and E-TTL ll flash operation from Canon.
58 AF-1 N digital: offers i-TTL and D-TTL from Nikon.
The high performance power pack P 76 can also be used with the 58 AF-1 digital, for reduced flash recycle time and a huge increase in capacity of flashes per charge. This flash power is available for all types of use in connection with the V 58-50 cable.
