How often have you been disappointed about dark photos merely because the flash integrated in your camera was not powerful enough? And have you ever wanted a handy compact flash unit that can be used separately from the camera!

Metz offers the perfect solution with the mecablitz 28 CS-2 digital - optimally adapted in performance and size to compact digital cameras! The fun factor is enhanced with the self-leaning slave mode and the ingenious EASY-Mode. For the very first time the flash shot taken can be directly influenced with the instant correction keys (+/-)! Simply release the shutter, check the result on the camera’s monitor, and correct with the keys should this prove to be necessary.

With this slave model the flash power can be boosted without any undesirable side-effects. The power is generated by normal alkaline size-AAA batteries or the equally inexpensive rechargeable AAA batteries.

The 28 CS-2 is a state-of-the-art, compact slave unit comprising Metz’s exclusive "easy mode" technology, which allows the user to automatically fine-tune the flashgun to the specific camera’s requirements. The unit is designed for use with cameras that do not feature an integral hot shoe and has a built-in bracket that allows the unit to be attached to the side of the camera.

A special slave function ignores red-eye and monitors preflashes.

Included Accessories:

• Changeable telephoto attachment (85 mm)
• Wide-angle attachment (24 mm)
