Features

High-power flash with a maximum guide number of 58

This high-power flash has a maximum guide number of 58. By combining the TruePic image processor and TTL synchronisation technology, optimal lighting is produced. It covers an illumination angle of 24-200mm and 14-20mm when using a wide panel.

  • *35mm equivalent

10-fps sequential shooting tracking performance

The FL-900R has the highest sequential shooting tracking performance in its class[1] at 10 fps[2]. Charging circuits optimised for NiMH batteries reduce charging time to approximately 2.5 seconds. The firing range has also been expanded to low intensity levels for enhanced tracking performance during high-speed sequential shooting.

  • *1. When using a clip-on flash with a guide number of 50 or higher powered by four AA batteries. Based on Olympus research as of September 2016.
  • *2. When using the OM-D E-M1 Mark II, at a flash ratio of 1/32.

Compact, lightweight flash that is dustproof, splashproof and freezeproof down to -10?

The FL-900R is compact and lightweight, making it highly portable. Additionally, since it is dustproof, splashproof and freezeproof down to -10? like the OM-D E-M1 Mark II, E-M1, or E-M5 Mark II, using this flash with any of those cameras lets you shoot in a variety of severe environments.

Useful in all types of photography

Equipped with a commander function[1] for coordinating with wireless flash units

This flash unit can be used for multiple-high-power-flash photography via wireless control. From the camera, you can adjust settings for up to 4 flash groups.
