Smallrig 5818 RS20 Flash

Elevate your photography and videography with the SMALLRIG RS20, a state-of-the-art on-camera flash designed for the modern creative. Engineered for reliability, speed, and ultimate creative control, the RS20 bridges the gap between powerful still photography and dynamic video lighting, ensuring you capture every moment with stunning clarity and professional quality. Say goodbye to challenging lighting conditions and inconsistent results; this flash is your dependable partner for unlocking a new level of visual storytelling, whether you are shooting in a studio, on location, or at a fast-paced event.

At its core, the RS20 boasts a formidable Guide Number of 60 (ISO 100, @200mm), delivering ample power to illuminate subjects even in large spaces or to overpower bright daylight for dramatic effect. This immense output ensures your creative vision is never limited by a lack of light. Seamlessly integrate the flash with your camera system through full support for TTL automatic flash exposure, providing consistently accurate and balanced lighting without constant manual guesswork. For moments of high-speed action, engage the High-Speed Sync (HSS) function to shoot with wide-open apertures or freeze motion, giving you complete command over ambient and artificial light.

Speed is paramount. The RS20 is equipped with an advanced power system, including a high-capacity rechargeable lithium-ion battery that provides an incredibly fast recycle time of approximately 1.5 seconds at full power. This rapid response means you are always ready for the next shot, making it the perfect companion for weddings, sports, and reportage. The long-lasting battery ensures you can keep shooting for extended periods without interruption, delivering hundreds of full-power flashes on a single charge.

Adapt to any scenario with the versatile zoom head, which automatically or manually adjusts its coverage from a wide 20mm to a telephoto 200mm to perfectly match your lens. The flash head offers extensive articulation, with a full 360-degree rotation and a tilt range from -7 to 90 degrees, allowing you to bounce light off walls and ceilings for soft, flattering results. For even more creative freedom, a built-in 2.4GHz wireless radio system transforms the RS20 into a powerful master or slave unit, enabling you to build and control complex multi-light setups with ease and precision from a distance.

Recognizing the needs of hybrid shooters, the RS20 incorporates a variable-power LED modeling light. This continuous light source is invaluable for previewing your lighting effects before taking a photo and serves as a convenient, high-quality fill light for short video clips, interviews, and online content creation. The SmallRig RS20 On-Camera Flash is more than just a light source; it is an indispensable tool for photographers and filmmakers who demand performance, versatility, and reliability
