Overview

Pentax AF240Z Flash (USED)

The Pentax AF-240Z (distinct from the older "T" or "FT" series) is a dedicated electronic flash featuring a power-zoom head designed to automatically or manually match your lens focal length.

Key Specifications & Features

  • Guide Number: 24 meters / 79 feet (at the 50mm setting) up to 28 meters / 92 feet (at the 135mm telephoto setting) at ISO 100.
  • Zoom Coverage: Covers focal lengths ranging from 35mm up to 135mm, adjusting the spread of light to match the lens mounted on the camera.
  • Recycle Time: Approximately 7 seconds with fresh cells.
  • Power Source: Operates on four standard AA batteries (Alkaline or NiMH).

Compatibility & Differences from "T/FT" Models

  • Unlike the older AF-240T/FT models which were built primarily for classic manual-focus or early electronic bodies (like the Super Program or SFX/SF1), the AF-240Z incorporates a digital control interface designed for later autofocus 35mm film SLR systems.
  • It supports dedicated automated features like focus-aid beam projection and integrated auto-exposure communication with compatible film bodies. When mounted on non-communicating hot shoes or digital cameras, it will typically default to basic manual triggering via the central sync contact.
