Canon MT-24 EX Macro Twin Lite

The MacroTwin Lite MT-24EX Canon flash incorporates E-TTL flash technology to give properly balanced exposure, even under difficult lighting situations. When used in conjunction with Speedlite 580EX and EXII units, wireless control of up to three slave groups can be achieved.The control unit has a large easy to read LCD panel adopting the familiar layout of other Speedlite models.

Compatable Lenses:
EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro, EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM, EF 180 f/3.5L Macro (with adaptor) and MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5x

The flash mount ring attaches directly to the objective end of the Canon EF 50mm f/2.5 Macro Lens, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens or Canon MP-E 65mm 1-5x f/2.8 Macro Lens. Mounting the Canon Macro Twin Lite MT-24EX Flash on the Canon EF 180mm f/3.5 L USM Macro lens requires the optional modestly-priced Canon Macro Lite Adapter 72C. A button on the flash mount ring releases four catches and allows it to slide over the end of the lens (after the lens cap and hood are removed). The lens cap and hood can be reattached to the flash mount ring. The flash mount ring can rotate to and lock in the position you wish by pressing/releasing the button. Two small flash heads (marked A and B for their respective IDs) mount to the flash mount ring (thus its name). They slide and snap into mini flash shoes. A button press on each individual flash head mount is required to release the heads. Each flash head can be individually tilted in and out (friction-held with click stops). As well, each head can be individually rotated around the ring (requires a release button to be held in). And again, the flash mount ring itself can be rotated - rotating both flash heads simultaneously. The flash heads do not even need to remain in their mounts. Remove one or both and position them exactly where you want them.
