Pentax AF-500FTZ

This flash was designed for PENTAX film autofocus cameras and is quite powerful with a guide number of 50 (ISO 100 in meters with a 85mm lens). The flash has a zooming flash head, which tilts and swivels for bounce flash.

On non-autofocus cameras and on DSLRs without TTL support (PENTAX K-series DSLRs, *istDL/DL2) the flash can only be used in manual flash mode.

Optional accessories:
TR PowerPack 2
