Keks KF01 Compact Flash For Film Cameras
The Keks KF01 Compact Flash is a small, stylish on-camera flash designed with film photographers in mind. With its aluminium body, simple controls and classic rectangular shape, it pairs neatly with vintage cameras while still offering practical everyday performance.
Compact enough to carry easily, the KF01 is around the size of a credit card and sits unobtrusively on top of a camera. It can be used via a standard hot shoe, while the built-in PC sync port makes it suitable for many older cameras that require a sync cable.
With a guide number of 12 and three output levels, the KF01 gives you simple control over your lighting for a wide range of shooting situations. The back of the flash also features an easy-to-read exposure chart, helping reduce guesswork when shooting film.
The KF01 runs on two AAA batteries and can deliver approximately 300 flashes, with a recycle time of 1.5 to 8 seconds depending on power level and battery condition. Its durable aluminium construction gives it a more premium feel than many compact flashes, making it a strong match for classic film camera setups.
Why We Like It
The KF01 gets the balance right between style and simplicity. It looks at home on a classic film camera, but still gives you the practical features you need, including adjustable output, PC sync support and a handy exposure chart on the back.
