Hensel Cito 500

CITO 500. THE FASTEST COMPACT FLASH WORLDWIDE.
Do you want to freeze fastest motion at maximum sharpness or take fast picture series? Maybe even both at the same time as often required for people, fashion, or product photography? Then, the new Hensel Cito 500 is the first choice: with flash duration times of up to 1/100.000s and a picture frequency of 40 flashes/sec. maximum, it is the fastest compact flash worldwide.

It achieves flash duration times of less than 1/20.000s and more than 10 flashes/sec. already at a medium power setting: practical values for dynamic shootings! At ca. 15Ws Cito reaches 1/63.000s, this means approximately 4 f-stops more light output than a flash with just 1Ws! This flash helps you take fascinating images that stand out from the crowd. In normal mode, continuously.

• Ultra-short flash duration times from 1/2,000-1/100,000 sec. for “freezing” fastest movements
