FUJIFILM
India is pleased to announce the launch of the “FUJIFILM Shoe Mount Flash
EF-60” (EF-60) in August 2020, adding another accessory for the X Series and
GFX Series of digital cameras.
The
EF-60 is a compact yet powerful hot-shoe mount flash, offering the maximum
guide number* of 60**. It can be combined with the
“FUJIFILM Wireless Commander EF-W1” (EF-W1), to be released at the same time,
to enable wireless off-camera flash operation. This allows users to control
lighting with their inspiration to suit a variety of shooting situations for
creative photographic effects.
The
EF-60 is a compact hot-shoe mount flash measuring 97mm x 73mm and weighing just
300g*** despite its powerful
output with the maximum guide number of 60. The output can be precisely
adjusted to add dimensions to various situations with light and shade. The
flash can be combined with the EF-W1 to enable wireless off-camera flash
operation. This allows users to position the flash beside or behind a main
subject to provide lighting from various directions, or synch and fire multiple
flash units simultaneously for multi-flash photography, facilitating diverse
photographic expression.
The flash head can be manually angled 180 degrees
left-to-right and 90 degrees upward so that the light can be bounced off a
ceiling or wall to create indirect lighting, which provides natural lights to
capture the subject's facial expressions and the ambience of the scene with
greater nuance.
Fujifilm
will continue to expand the X and GFX Series of digital cameras and the
extensive range of interchangeable lenses as well as camera accessories
including the new EF-60 to deliver the joy of photography and photographic
pleasure.
