Viltrox Vintage Z1+: manual flash with retro control

The compact Z1+ flash for cameras with a standard centre-contact hot shoe combines 24 Ws output, GN 12 (ISO 100) and seven manual levels from 1/1 to 1/64. It is made for direct flash, creative portraits and classic or digital cameras without proprietary TTL communication.

Output under direct control

The mechanical dial provides seven power steps, flash duration from 1/5,000 to 1/50,000 s and approximately 1.5 s full-power recycling. Its 28 mm wide-angle coverage and 6,500 ±200 K colour temperature support a distinctive yet controllable direct-light look.

S1/S2 optical sync: the integrated sensor enables wireless off-camera triggering; S2 ignores a master flash pre-flash.

A light travel companion

The approximately 132 g body contains a 3.7 V / 800 mAh battery. It charges through USB-C at 5 V / 2 A in about 70 minutes, enters sleep after 15 minutes of inactivity, and provides roughly 400 to 10,000 flashes depending on output setting.
