Marumi has good news for Sony users

09/11/10

Kenro has announced that the renowned Marumi Ring Flash (MADRF14) is now available with a Sony fit.

Previously, the Marumi Ring Flash was only an option for Canon or Nikon owners, but now Sony users will be able to take advantage of its shadow-free illumination. It is designed for close up, macro, medical, scientific and forensic photography as the flash light source is positioned directly between the camera lens and the subject providing an even/shadowless illumination.

The Ring Flash consists of a Main Control Unit which fits directly onto the camera hot shoe and a separate Ring Flash Unit which connects to the lens filter thread. The standard mount is 52mm and step up rings to 55mm, 58mm, 62mm and 67mm are included. The unit incorporates direct hot shoe synchronisation and has a flash duration of 1/7000th second and a recycling time of 4-6 seconds.

Kenro managing director Paul Kench believes the new Marumi Ring Flash is ideally suited to those looking for high end results on a limited budget:

"Ring flash is normally an expensive luxury, but now it is within reach of every serious photographer, courtesy of Marumi. I'm delighted this option is now open to Sony users. It's easy to use and very effective."

The DRF14 has a RRP of £187.41 and is available now from major photographic dealers.
