The Sony HVL-F60RM2 Wireless Radio Flash supports the latest camera technology and communication that only Sony can offer, achieving reliable flash at high continuous shooting speeds with intuitive operation via the camera interface, quick shift bounce, and wireless radio control.

FEATURES:

GN60 High-output flash supports the latest camera technology - This durable high-output GN60 flash unit delivers levels of sophistication and camera communication that only Sony can offer, achieving reliable flash at high continuous shooting speeds and sync at shutter speeds up to 1/400 sec. Intuitive operation via the camera interface, quick shift bounce, and wireless radio communication add refined control and versatility.

Intelligent communication with the latest Alpha bodies - The Alpha Lighting System has evolved in parallel with Alpha camera bodies to give creators optimum illumination in a wide range of applications. A level of integration that is only possible with original Sony products achieves detailed communication with compatible camera bodies for reliable and precise light control.

Stable high-power output that satisfies professional needs - The HVL-F60RM2 is designed and manufactured by Sony, so it can communicate with Alpha cameras to deliver consistent GN601 light output at every flash. The HVL-F60RM2 supports focal lengths from 20mm (14mm with the wide panel) to 200mm.

Flash control linked to camera face detection - The HVL-F60RM2 works with a compatible camera’s face detection to provide ideal lighting for the main subject, even in groups. In addition, white balance is automatically adjusted so that the subject’s face is rendered with natural color.

Auto white balance accuracy - Thanks to in-house design, this advanced flash unit transfers color temperature data to the camera where that data is used to precisely adjust white balance so that colors are rendered naturally in any situation, that only original equipment can achieve.

Light output optimized for focal length and image size - Flash illumination angle is automatically adjusted to match the focal length of the lens used over a 20 -200mm range (14mm w/ wide panel -200mm). Light distribution is also adjusted for optimum illumination with full-frame or APS-C format.

Fast recycle and dependable high-speed continuous flash - Advanced electronics and construction contribute to fast recycle times and allow continuous flash shooting for extended periods of time. A set of four batteries can provide power for more than 240 flashes with 1.7 second recycle time3. The optional FA-EBA1 external flash battery adapter can be used to provide recycle times as fast as 0.6 seconds.

Innovative overheating prevention - The use of heat resistant materials plus an optimized flash algorithm provides higher resistance to overheating that allows longer flash shooting sessions.

Stable high-speed continuous flash shooting - The HVL-F60RM2 can continuously provide flash for up to 200 frames in high-speed bursts at up to 10 fps with a compatible camera. Missed frames dues to flash sync failure are avoided, providing stable continuous shooting support. With the electronic shutter on a compatible camera, up to approx. 20 flashes per second can be produced continuously for more than 1 second. The FA-EBA1 external flash battery allows approx. 20 flashes per second for more than 10 seconds.

Up to 1/400 sec. shutter sync with a compatible for new expression - Used with a compatible camera2 body the HVL-F60RM2 allows flash sync up to 1/400 sec. This makes it possible to deemphasize the background while using flash to illuminate the main subject, illuminate moving subjects against a bright background, and more.

Per-frame P-TTL flash control adapts to changing light - When used with a compatible camera, high-speed control sequencing in the camera uses pre-flash to control each individual flash during continuous bursts, even when tracking fast-moving subjects in scenes where the light changes dramatically.

High-speed, slow, and rear-curtain sync - High-speed sync (HSS) works at all shutter speeds and can be used with the aperture wide open to produce beautiful background bokeh for portraits. Slow sync and rear-curtain sync are also supported.

Selectable flash distribution types - Three selectable flash distribution types are provided: Standard (STD), GN priority (CENTER), and wide-angle priority (EVEN).

Minimal flash trigger time lag - When using the HVL-F60RM2 in combination with a compatible camera, time lag between pressing the shutter button and flash output is significantly reduced so that fleeting moments can be captured with confidence.

Fast angle adjustment with Quick Shift Bounce - Bounced light can be more pleasing than harsh direct light. Quick Shift Bounce provides bounce angles for both horizontal and vertical camera orientation. Quickly angle the flash head 90 degrees to the left or right, 150 degrees up, or 8 degrees down, and rapidly switch between horizontal and vertical shooting. A revised mechanism is more compact and convenient.

Comprehensive control from compatible cameras - A compatible camera can conveniently use its interface to directly control the HVL-F60RM2 settings, including flash compensation, ratio, and other parameters. A camera custom key can be used to call up the flash display for easy adjustment while looking through the viewfinder.

Fast, intuitive direct light level controls - Dedicated + and – LEVEL buttons allow direct, speedy light output and flash compensation control, and can also be used to control the same parameters on other wirelessly paired flash units for smooth, efficient workflow.

Efficient TTL light level memory - TTL flash level can be memorized and later recalled for manual adjustment. This can greatly reduce the time required to manually set up flash parameters in a wide range of situations.

Improved rear-panel Quick Navi display - Pressing the Fn button causes the selected flash mode and other parameters to appear on the display for easy setup in a variety of shooting situations.

Robust reliability - A metal shoe foot with rugged side frame significantly increases the strength and durability of the Multi Interface Shoe and its electrical contacts, while a dust and moisture resistant design8 contribute to high reliability in outdoor conditions. Shoe sealing achieves even greater dust and moisture resistance with certain a series cameras.

Versatile radio wireless communication - Stable wireless radio communication is ensured at distances up to 98.4 ft (30m ). Reliable, error-free communication is achieved even around reflectors and obstacles. Slow sync, rear-curtain sync, and multi flash are supported.
