Leica System flash SF 60

Compact, powerful and a great team player

With the SF 60 and a Leica Camera, you have the ideal set-up for a wide range of photographic situations. The flash has sufficient power to cover longer distances with its zoom-reflector or for shooting with soft, indirect flash from a reflector or bounced from a wall or ceiling.

Thanks to TTL flash exposure control in the camera, the dosing of fill-in flash for subtile brightening of subjects is no problem at all.

The SF 60 expands Leica’s existing portfolio of flashes, which includes the SF 40 and is the first wirelessly triggering hot shoe flash from Leica. Wireless off-camera triggering allows a combination of the SF C1 and multiple SF 60 flashes to work seamlessly on-the-go for the ultimate freedom in portable studio quality lighting.

The clip-on softbox for softer light enables flexible adaption of flash illumination to the needs of the subject. Its high-speed synchronisation at shutter speeds of up to 1/8000 s with compatible cameras turns day into night – the foreground is perfectly exposed by the flash while the background remains dark, despite the ambient daylight.

The SF 60 and SF C1 can be used with the Leica SL, M10, S (007), Q, CL, M (Typ 240), M9, M8 and S (006), provided that the camera has the most recent firmware update. The SF C1 is only compatible with the SF 60 flash unit. Additionally, multiple SF 60 flashes can connect to each other for wireless triggering, and they can fire other Leica flashes (SF 40, SF 64, SF 58) via optically triggered remote mode. This flexibility of the SF 60 and SF C1 make them a fully featured solution for lightweight high-quality lighting.
