Fujifilm Adds Fantasea Remora Flash As Newest Accessory

By Matt J. Weiss, October 27, 2009 @ 01:22 PM (EST)

 This is from the Fujifilm website...

"Enhance your underwater photography with this powerful and versatile flash. The new Fujifilm Remora Flash Kit is compatible with Fujifilm's full range of digital compact cameras and underwater housings and provides extra flexibility and more accurate flash output to help you take high quality underwater photographs. The Remora's powerful flash has a guide number of 20, so, not only is it suited to daytime diving, but its performance is also essential during night dives when a good light source is even more critical to taking great pictures. Another key feature of new the Fujifilm Remora Flash is the wide angle flash beam angle of 60 degrees. This extra wide flash spread means a bigger area can be illuminated underwater to meet the needs of both macro and wide-angle photography.

 For complete control, the Fujifilm Remora Flash features a manual light output range of 10% to 100%, so the amount of flash can be fine tuned to achieve a correct exposure for the perfect shot. This is coupled with a short recycle time ensures quick responsiveness, even when using the maximum power output of 100%.

For ease of use, the powerful flash unit is mounted on a flexible arm which can be quickly adjusted to just the right angle for any subject or situation. The reliability of the flash firing is enhanced by a fibre optic which feeds from the camera's flash to the Remora to guarantee the flash will fire correctly with each shot.
