Metz mecablitz 28 AF-3 digital - Optimized for compact digital cameras  

The flash boost for your shots

Be it a garden party, wedding, child?s birthday or a luxury cruise - They are all those irretrievable moments in life that build up in the course of the years. Yet, in spite of the importance of the moment, the photographic results often turn out to be disappointing: Sometimes faces are too dark on account of the high contrasts between light and shadows. And then the colours are too flat because the camera?s internal flash was not powerful enough. The real answer is to be on the safe side with a Metz mecablitz 28 AF-3 digital. This small, clip-on flash unit is designed in technology and size to match optimally the compact digital cameras.

The new Metz unit operates fully automatically and is so handy that it will easily fit in your jacket pocket. Power can be supplied either by normal alkaline batteries or equally price-effective rechargeable batteries. Four variants are available for Canon, Konica Minolta, Nikon or Olympus - and they all feature the very latest “digital picture technologies”.

Clever and smart
Compared with the flash integrated in cameras, Metz mecablitz 28 AF-3 digital offers a major benefit, namely power: Guide number 28 at ISO 100 / 210 and clip-on telephoto attachment. Both the telephoto attachment and wide-angle diffuser are included in the price. With regard to flash modes there is an additional manual setting and a manual setting with partial light output level. A special reset function ensures that the flash unit can be returned to the initial settings at any time.
