HVL-F56AM

External flash

Includes case, mini-stand

Compact and high-performance flash unit with
high flash output (guide number: 6*

). Its wide-

angle adapter expands flash coverage to the
angle of view of a lens at 17 mm focal length*

In conjunction with the lens’ built-in distance
encoder, it performs ADI flash metering and
avoids the influence of background or subject
reflectance. Also offers wireless operation and
high-speed sync. Flash head can be angled or
swiveled for bounce flash or close-up shooting.

External flash

Includes case, mini-stand, diffuser

Compact flash unit with guide number 36*

Includes a wide-angle adapter to expand flash
coverage to the angle of view of a lens at 17
mm focal length*

. In conjunction with the lens’

built-in distance encoder, it performs ADI flash
metering and avoids the influence of subject or
background reflectance. Compatible with high-
speed sync and wireless flash. Flash head tilts up
to 90° for bounce flash applications.

Advanced flash functions for

superior control of lighting.

ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) flash metering

A high-precision TTL flash metering method that works in conjunction
with the built-in distance encoder of the lens. Flash output is based
on accurate measurement of distance-to-subject, and therefore is
not affected by the reflectance of subjects or backgrounds.

High-speed sync operation

Flash operation can be synchronized to all shutter speeds, which
offers a distinct advantage over conventional daylight sync
operation in which the shutter speed must be equal to or slower than
the speed of the flash. With high-speed sync, you can work at faster
shutter speeds and thus open up the aperture to obtain defocused
backgrounds for more pleasing portraits. High-speed is compatible
with wireless flash operation.

• HSS is not compatible with ADI metering and bounce flash (in upward direction).

TTL (through-the-lens) wireless flash

Wireless functionality lets you set the position and direction of
off-camera lighting in any way you like. By lighting from different
angles, you can create soft shadows to add depth to your images,
and avoid the strong shadows and hot spots that occur with front
lighting. Compatible with high-speed sync.

Professional-quality lighting is within reach. External flash advanced features let

you meter more precisely, use faster shutter speeds, set-up off-camera lighting

and more.

Wide focus area-compatible
AF illuminator

(

HVL-F56AM ONLY)

The AF illuminator complements the camera’s wide
focus area, and enables fast and accurate focusing in
dim conditions.

Modeling flash function

(HVL-F56AM ONLY)

Two types of modeling flash help you refine your lighting
setups. One type fires 3 short bursts in 1. seconds, so
that you can check the size and direction of shadows
on the subject. Ideal for wireless flash photography. The
other type produces 160 bursts in seconds (0 Hz),
which mimics the effect of ambient lighting and allows
for even finer checking of shadows.

Comparison with the built-in flash

The 100’s built-in flash has a guide number of 12*, which
can reach subjects at about 10 ft (3 m) (F, ISO 100). This
is highly practical in most situations, but but in longer
shooting distances an external flash can provide great
flexibility. The HVL-F6AM features guide number 6, and can
reach 6 ft (1 m) at the same camera settings. In addition,
this unit’s high flash output can be used to bounce light off
the ceiling or walls, which adds diffuse light to the scene
to create pleasing, very natural illumination without harsh
shadows.
