Product details

The Olympus FL-900R is the perfect addition for professional OM-D and M.ZUIKO PRO models. It impresses with a weatherproof housing, a guide number of 58, and high-speed continuous shooting capabilities. It is dust and splash resistant, as well as frost-proof. This makes it an ideal match for all professional OM-D cameras and M.ZUIKO PRO series lenses. When combined with the OM-D E-M1 Mark II, the FL-900R showcases its high speed and exceptional performance in continuous shooting. This flash combines the power of the camera's internal image processor (TruePic) with TTL synchronization, covering a focal length range of 12-100 mm and 7-10 mm in the wide-angle range. Videographers will appreciate the bright LED movie light function with 100 Lux, which operates in both Auto and Manual modes, allowing adjustments from 1 EV steps up to full power at 1/32.

The compact and lightweight Olympus FL-900R can be wirelessly controlled, for instance, when multiple flash units are in use. In this case, the FL-600R can be used as a master on the camera's hot shoe with the Commander function. Whether as a master or slave, its four channels are compatible with four groups. Up to four flash groups can be controlled via the camera, allowing for selection of whether a group fires or not. In addition to other settings, flash power correction can also be specified. The reflector of the FL-600R can be tilted 180° and tilted 90°. The Olympus flash supports the High-Res Shot function as well as Focus Bracketing and many other Olympus shooting modes.
