The METZ Mecablitz 50 AF-1 Digital Flashgun is the evolution of the 48 AF-1 digital, winner of the TIPA Award for 'best photographic accessory 2008'. The elegant housing can be mounted onto the camera hotshoe via the new metal base & fixed in place quickly & easily with a single movement thanks to the optimised lock system.
