Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX
Automatic flash metering
Compatible with all EOS digital SLR cameras, the MR-14EX Macro Ring Lite offers fully automatic E-TTL II flash metering for accurate and consistent flash exposures in all situations. The Guide Number of 14 provides enough flash power even when working at high magnifications.
<b>Ratio control</b>
Achieve creative lighting results by controlling the two flash tubes either together as one or independently. Use the six-stop ratio control to create even and shadowless lighting or strongly side-lit effects by using the six-stop ratio control.
Rotate the ring lite around the front of your lens to light from the sides or above and below.
<b>Wireless Master flash</b>
You can control background lighting by using the MR-14EX as a wireless master unit to trigger remote EX-Series Speedlites. This provides a third group of light you can use to efficiently light other areas of the scene.
<b>Focusing lights</b>
Working at high magnifications can make focusing difficult. Two focusing lights provide subject illumination to aid manual focusing.
Two different modelling flash settings enable you to fire a strobe pre-flash with the depth-of-field preview button. The default setting fires the two tubes at the appropriate power setting to allow accurate judgment of where shadows will fall.
<b>Power Source</b>
Powered by 4xAA batteries or an external battery pack like the CP-E4, the MR-14EX is compact and portable. AA batteries provide fast recycling so you can continue to shoot without having to wait between shots.
<b>Custom Functions</b>
Tailor the MR-14EX to suit your personal preferences by making use of the seven custom functions available.
