FL-900R Electronic Flash
This is a high-power flash with a maximum guide number of 58. It features superb tracking performance for high-speed sequential shooting. It is dustproof, splashproof, and freezeproof down to -10℃, expanding your photographic possibilities.
This high-power flash has a maximum guide number of 58. By combining the TruePic image processor and TTL synchronisation technology, optimal lighting is produced. It covers an illumination angle of 24-200mm and 14-20mm when using a wide panel.
The FL-900R has the highest sequential shooting tracking performance in its class[1] at 10 fps[2]. Charging circuits optimised for NiMH batteries reduce charging time to approximately 2.5 seconds. The firing range has also been expanded to low intensity levels for enhanced tracking performance during high-speed sequential shooting.
The FL-900R is compact and lightweight, making it highly portable. Additionally, since it is dustproof, splashproof and freezeproof down to -10°C like the OM-1, E-M1X, E-M1 Mark III, E-M1 Mark II, E-M1, E-M5 Mark III or E-M5 Mark II, using this flash with any of those cameras lets you shoot in a variety of severe environments.
This flash unit can be used for multiple-high-power-flash photography via wireless control. From the camera, you can adjust settings for up to 4 flash groups. The flash also comes equipped with a slave function. In addition, the FL-900R can be attached to the hot shoe of a camera and can be used as the master flash when using the commander function. An IR filter is included for when the commander light is not necessary.
This FL-900R is compatible with Multi Mode for firing the flash multiple times during long exposures or bulb shooting to express subject motion.
This flash unit can be used with popular features on the OM-1 such as Tripod High Res Shot, Focus Stacking, and Focus Bracketing.
This unit is equipped with an LED light for video recording in darker areas using OM-D Movie. It can also be used as an AF illuminator.
