TTL Automatic Flash Metering and New High-Speed Sync
The Vintage Z1 Pro is the first in the series to include High-Speed Sync (HSS) functionality up to 1/8000s, enabling photographers to shoot in bright daylight with wider apertures and capture fast-moving subjects in natural ambient conditions.
TTL flash metering automatically adjusts flash output based on ambient lighting conditions. The Vintage Z1 Pro supports two optical trigger modes: S1 mode, which triggers simultaneously when another flash burst is detected, and S2 mode, which ignores TTL pre-flashes and triggers on the primary flash burst, enabling flexible multi-light arrangements and off-camera flash setups.
Intuitive Circular Color Touchscreen
The Vintage Z1 Pro features a newly integrated circular color touchscreen UI designed to simplify workflows. The display provides clear access to flash output levels, shooting modes, battery status, and sync settings, while touch-based controls enable faster and more intuitive adjustments compared to traditional button-operated interfaces.
High-Speed, High-Performance Flash
The Vintage Z1 Pro delivers 24Ws flash output with a 1-second recycle time. The high-capacity battery supports up to 350 full-power flashes per charge, helping creators maintain a smooth shooting rhythm. Integrated USB-C charging allows the flash to fit conveniently into modern loadouts, with a full recharge taking just 70 minutes.
Broad Camera Compatibility
The Vintage Z1 Pro supports Sony, Nikon, Canon, and Fujifilm camera systems (hot shoe versions) across a wide range of mainstream cameras.
The Diversity of Style in Viltrox’s Flash Series
With the launch of the Vintage Z1 Pro, Viltrox continues to expand its flash lineup, offering creators a broader range of lighting solutions across different shooting styles, creative preferences, and performance needs.
