Canon Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX

Detailed Features

• Automatic flash metering

  Compatible with all EOS digital SLR cameras, the Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX offers fully automatic E-TTL II flash metering for accurate flash exposures in all situations. Each flash head has a Guide Number of 12 giving a combined power of Guide Number 24. This provides enough flash power even when working at high magnifications.

• Ratio control

  Control the two flash heads together or independently for creative results. Adjust the ratio control between the flash heads within a six-stop range to create complex lighting effects. A circular lens mount* allows the twin lites to be rotated around the lens for lighting either from the sides or above and below. Remove the two flash heads from the mounting ring and place them separately for greater control over light direction or more complex lighting.

• Wireless sender flash

  Use the wireless sender function to trigger remote EX-Series Speedlites. Controlling a third lighting group of one or more receiver Speedlites enables you to light other areas of the scene, like the background, more effectively.

• Focusing lights

  Working at high magnifications can make focusing difficult. A focusing light on each flash head provides subject illumination to aid manual focusing. Two different modelling flash settings enable you to fire a strobe pre-flash with the depth-of-field preview button. The default setting fires the two tubes at the appropriate power setting to allow accurate judgment of where shadows will fall.

• Power Source

  Powered by 4xAA batteries or external power packs like the CP-E4, the MT-24EX is lightweight and portable. AA batteries provide fast recycling so you can continue to shoot without having to wait between shots.

• Custom Functions

  With nine Custom Functions, the MT-24EX can be tailored to suit your personal requirements. * The EF 180mm f/3.5L Macro USM lens requires Macro Lite Adaptor 72C and the EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM lens requires Macro Lite Adaptor 67C
