54MZ-4 TTL Dedicated Shoe Mount Flash
The flagship model in the Metz shoe mount series, the 54MZ-4 offers cutting edge technology
with features such as Nikon’s 3-D multi sensor TTL metering, Canon’s E- TTL flash control, and
high-speed synchronization (HSS).
The 54MZ-4 is available with a standard single pin shoe, or as a kit with your choice of SCA 3002
modules for Canon, Minolta, Nikon or Pentax. However, the 54MZ-4 remains user-friendly with only
two buttons and a single thumb wheel to control the logically arranged menu system. The illuminated
LCD panel is large and easy-to-read and only displays the pertinent mode information. Special
features include the display of focal length for the lens in use in the LCD screen, display in feet or
meters, auto flash bracketing, auto shut-off, and lockable keypad eliminating accidental setting changes.
◆ The main flash’s Auto Zoom feature works
with lenses in the 24-105mm range,
producing a GN of 177 (feet) at ISO 100 at
maximum zoom setting and a GN of 131
(feet) at ISO 100 at 50mm.
◆ A secondary reflector fills in the shadows
in close-up areas that are created when
using an indirect flash. It can also be used
to produce wrap around lighting when the
main flash, with its built-in tilt/swivel
function, is bounced off a wall or ceiling.
◆ Automatic Flash Program provides
automatic adjustment of the optimal
time/f-stop/flash exposure combination.
◆ Compatible with SCA-300 and SCA-3002
adapter systems

54AF-1 Digital TTL Dedicated Shoe Mount Flash
The 54 AF-1 Digital was developed for digital and film cameras. Ergonomics are straightfor-
ward, with most features operable with only one button. Easy to operate, yet it offers a range
of advanced features, like stroboscopic modeling light, three partial light output levels, 1st and
2nd curtain sync and HSS high speed sync. It also represents the state-of-the-art in flash
technology. New internal precision metering methods ensure perfect flash exposures with
either Nikon’s D-TTL, 3D/D-TTL, i-TTL and i-TTL-BL systems for its digital cameras,
including the D70; with Canon’s E-TTL system for its EOS and PowerShot series
cameras; with Konica/Minolta’s AD system for its Dimage series cameras.
