Description

The LEICA SF20 dedicated flash unit has been specially designed for the LEICA R8 and the LEICA M6TTL and adds another interesting product to the R and M range of accessories. Its modern design further enhances the attractive appearance of both camera models.The LEICA SF20 is simple to use and returns consistent results as the flash benefits from the advantages of the TTL metering function on the LEICA R8 and LEICA M6TTL. One of the advantages of this control technology is that correct flash exposure is confirmed immediately in the viewfinder. The additional contacts in the accessory shoe of the LEICA R8/LEICA M6 TTL and the contacts in the adapter foot of the flash unit automatically transfer the data between camera and flash. The film speed (ISO), the f-stop and the exposure override are thus signalled automatically and corresponding adjustment made. In addition, flash readiness and after shooting the correct flash exposure are confirmed. The user can read all the necessary information on the display.The SF20 can of course also be used on all other LEICA R and M models. For this purpose, it is equipped with its own photocell and a computer control with three stops. In addition, the user can choose to operate the flash manually. However, Leica advises against using the SF20 on cameras of other manufacturers, as the electrical connections may be incompatible and cause malfunctions.The LEICA SF20 flash is also notable for its compact design and light wei
