FEATURES

GN60[FN|200 mm at ISO 100 in meters.] High-output flash supports the latest camera technology


This durable high-output GN60[FN|200 mm at ISO 100 in meters.] flash unit delivers levels of sophistication and camera communication that only Sony can offer, achieving reliable flash at high continuous shooting speeds and sync at shutter speeds up to 1/400 sec[FN|Refer to support information for supported cameras and functional compatibility.]. Intuitive operation via the camera interface[FN|Refer to support information for supported cameras and functional compatibility.], quick shift bounce, and wireless radio communication add refined control and versatility.

Intelligent communication with the latest a bodies


The a Lighting System has evolved in parallel with a camera bodies to give creators optimum illumination in a wide range of applications. A level of integration that is only possible with original Sony products achieves detailed communication with compatible camera bodies for reliable and precise light control.

Stable high-power GN60[FN|200 mm at ISO 100 in meters.] output that satisfies professional needs


Because the HVL-F60RM2 is designed and manufactured by Sony, it can communicate with a camera bodies to deliver consistent GN60 light output at every flash. The HVL-F60RM2 supports focal lengths from 20mm (14mm with the wide panel) to 200mm.

Up to 20 flashes per second


With the electronic shutter on a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.], up to approx. 20 flashes per second can be produced continuously for more than 1 second[FN|a1 electronic shutter in continuous Hi+ mode. Flash output level manually set to 1/32.]. The FA-EBA1 external flash battery allows approx. 20 flashes per second for more than 10 seconds.

Up to 1/400 sec. shutter sync with a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.] for new expression


Used with a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.] body the HVL-F60RM2 allows flash sync up to 1/400 sec. This makes it possible to deemphasise the background while using flash to illuminate the main subject, illuminate moving subjects against a bright background, and more.

Stable high-speed continuous flash shooting


With a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.] the HVL-F60RM2 can continuously provide flash for up to 200 frames[FN|1/32 flash output level, Ni-MH batteries. Digital camera, mechanical shutter.] in high-speed bursts at up to 10 fps. Missed frames due to flash sync failure are avoided, providing stable continuous shooting support.

Minimal flash trigger time lag[FN|Sony test conditions]


When using the HVL-F60RM2 in combination with a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.], time lag between pressing the shutter button and flash output is significantly reduced[FN|Sony test conditions] so that fleeting moments can be captured with confidence.[FN|This image is for illustration purposes.]

Flash control linked to camera face detection[FN|Refer to support information for supported cameras and functional compatibility.]


With a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.], white balance is automatically adjusted so that the subject’s face is rendered with natural colour. The HVL-F60RM2 works with a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.] face detection to provide ideal lighting for the main subject, even in groups.

Per-frame P-TTL flash control adapts to changing light


When used with a compatible camera[FN|Functional compatibility may vary depending on a camera used.], high-speed control sequencing in the camera uses pre-flash to control each individual flash[FN|P-TTL flash control is used for each frame in the Mid and Hi continuous shooting modes as well as the Lo mode. (as of 2021)] during continuous bursts, even when tracking fast-moving subjects in scenes where the light changes dramatically.

Auto white balance accuracy that only original equipment can achieve


Thanks to in-house design, this advanced flash unit transfers colour temperature data to the camera where that data is used to precisely adjust white balance so that colors are rendered naturally in any situation.

Innovative overheating prevention for longer shooting sessions


The use of heat resistant materials plus an optimised flash algorithm provides higher resistance to overheating that allows longer flash shooting sessions.

Fast recycle and dependable high-speed continuous flash


Advanced electronics and construction contribute to fast recycle times and allow continuous flash shooting for extended periods of time. A set of four batteries can provide power for more than 240 flashes with 1.7 second recycle time[FN|Ni-MH batteries. Sony tests.]. The optional FA-EBA1 external flash battery adapter can be used to provide recycle times as fast as 0.6 seconds[FN|Ni-MH batteries. Sony tests.].

Metal shoe foot with rugged side frame


A metal shoe foot with rugged side frame significantly increases the strength and durability of the Multi Interface Shoe and its electrical contacts.

Light output optimised for focal length and image size


The flash illumination angle is automatically adjusted to match the focal length of the lens used over a 20-200mm range. Light distribution is also adjusted for optimum illumination with full-frame or APS-C format.

Enhanced dust and moisture resistance


A dust and moisture resistant design[FN|Not guaranteed to be 100% dust and moisture proof. Dust and moisture resistance will also vary according to the body to which the unit is attached.] contributes to high reliability in outdoor conditions. Shoe sealing achieves even greater dust and moisture resistance with certain a series bodies.

Comprehensive control from compatible cameras


Flash compensation, ratio, and other parameters can be controlled directly from a compatible camera[FN|Refer to support information for supported cameras and functional compatibility.]. A camera custom key can be used to call up the flash display for easy adjustment while looking through the viewfinder.

Fast angle adjustment with Quick Shift Bounce


Quickly angle the flash head 90 degrees to the left or right, 150 degrees up, or 8 degrees down, and rapidly switch between horizontal and vertical orientation. A revised mechanism is more compact and convenient.

Fast, intuitive direct light level controls


Dedicated + and – LEVEL buttons allow direct, speedy light output and flash compensation control, and can also be used to control the same parameters on other wirelessly paired flash units for smooth, efficient workflow.

Efficient TTL light level memory


TTL flash level can be memorised and later recalled for manual adjustment. This can greatly reduce the time required to manually set up flash parameters in a wide range of situations.

Improved rear-panel Quick Navi display


Pressing the Fn button causes the selected flash mode and other parameters to appear on the display for easy setup in a variety of shooting situations. While the previous HVL-F60RM flash only displayed the Wireless OFF and Memory Recall OFF icons when the Fn button was pressed, these parameters are normally visible on the HVL-F60RM2 display.

Versatile radio wireless communication


Stable wireless radio communication is ensured at distances up to 30m/98.4ft[FN|Sony test conditions]. Reliable, error-free communication is achieved even around reflectors and obstacles. Slow sync, rear-curtain sync, and multi flash are supported[FN|Refer to support information for supported cameras and functional compatibility.].

Auto white balance with colour filters


When one of the supplied colour filters is attached to the flash unit, the camera’s white balance is automatically adjusted for a natural mix between flash and ambient light.  [1] Flash with colour filter  [2] Flash without colour filter.

Wireless radio control for up to 15 flash units


Control up to 15 flash and/or receiver units in 5 groups[FN|In group flash mode. 3 groups in TTL or manual flash mode.]. The HVL-F60RM2 can communicate with flash units that do not feature wireless radio communication via the optional FA-WRC1M commander and/or FA-WRR1 receiver.
