Fujifilm announced two new products yesterday whilst the Sony a7S III buzz was around and they are the company’s very first radio-controlled Fujifilm speedlight and a ‘wireless commander’ for Fuji X and GFX system cameras.
- EF-60 Speedlight;
The Fujifilm EF-60 packs very professional features in its compact form with a zoom range of 24mm to 200mm, a guide number (GN) of 60 at 200mm, and a bright white LED modeling light build into the flash itself. Power can be controlled in 1/3 stop increments, and if you pair it with the new EF-W1 Wireless Commander, you can change settings and fire it off-camera as well. The EF-60 is also compatible with the Nissin Air System (NAS), allowing you to use it with the Nissin Air10s Remote or integrate it with other NAS flashes.
- EF-W1 Wireless Commander;
The Fujifilm EF-W1 Wireless Commander is a 2.4GHz flash trigger that will allow you to take full control of the EF-60 and other NAS flashes, with support for TTL, Manual, and FP High-Speed Sync. The remote features support for up to 3 groups and 8 channels and both the new flash and the trigger are fully compatible with most Fuji cameras such as; GFX100, GFX 50S, GFX 50R, X-H1, X-Pro2, X-Pro3, X-T1, X-T2, X-T3, X-T4, X-T20, X-T30, X- E3, X100F, and X100V.
Both the EF-60 and the EF-W1 are both currently available to pre-order for $400 and $200, respectively and will start shipping in late August. To pre-order, click here.
