In addition to pivoting side-to-side, the flash unit can also tilt down 8 degrees or back 150 degrees, ensuring customers the lighting freedom they need to capture that perfect shot. Versatile bounce angles Versatile bounce angles: 90° up, 90° left. This allows the flash head to be rotated while maintaining the set bounce angle, so you can quickly switch between horizontal and vertical format without changing the light angle. Built-In Bounce sheet The built-in bounce sheet can be used even when shooting in a vertical position without changing the angle of reflected light. Auto white balance Auto white balance (signals color temp. to camera) Auto zoom Auto zoom optimized for camera sensor size Dust and Moisture resistant design Sealing materials are set at joints of outer materials (body, LCD panel, Mounting Foot etc.) and around movement/operating parts thereby increasing the life of your flash unit. Modeling light capability Modeling light capability allows the HVL-F43M to pulse, helping photographers determine where shadows will fall before taking the picture, so they can alter lighting or subject positioning as necessary.
