Viltrox debuts Vintage Z1 retro camera flash

Viltrox announced the new Vintage Z1 camera flash, which brings retro aesthetics and modern lighting technology together in a newly portable form: a palm-size lightweight design. The Viltrox Vintage Z1 comes with a white diffuser to soften its light, imbuing photos with a smooth, natural, ethereal glow and enhancing clarity and translucency. The device is priced at MSRP: $​​​49.99 / €56.99 / £47.99

The Vintage Z1 Flash Light combines iconic retro aesthetics with modern portable performance. The premium matte silver alloy chassis delivers nostalgic appeal through its artisanal craftsmanship, with lychee-textured genuine leather cladding and precision-engineered mechanical dials. Weighing 116g and measuring 6.8 × 5.0 × 7.4 cm, this is a palm-sized lighting solution.

Delivering a Guide Number (GN) of 12 (ISO 100, meters), the compact Vintage Z1 provides powerful illumination to overcome ambient light and capture well-lit shots in low-light or backlit conditions. The included white diffuser attachment softens light for a smooth natural glow, enhancing clarity and providing the translucency essential for flawless portraits, and helping make complex lighting scenarios effortless.

The Vintage Z1 offers precise control for creative lighting through seven adjustable power levels from 1/64 to 1/1. This enables meticulous light management in a wide variety of scenarios and is beneficial for both novices and experts in fine-tuning highlights and shadows. It also features a rapid 0.2s-3.5s recycle time, ensuring uninterrupted shooting to capture decisive moments. With 28mm wide-angle coverage, it provides even illumination for diverse situations, from indoor portraits to street photography. The short flash duration of 1/5,000s to 1/50,000s captures fast action with exceptional clarity.

The Vintage Z1’s built-in battery ensures robust performance for extended shoots. On a full charge, it delivers approximately 400 to 10,000 flashes, supporting stable operation even during high-intensity use or on a full day of shooting. Fast charging via USB-C allows a complete charge in just 50 minutes and even allows simultaneous charging and use, ensuring an uninterrupted creative workflow.
