Small enough to sit comfortably on a Leica M, Q, CL, Barnack-style body or classic film camera, it brings a clean hit of direct flash without turning your camera into a science project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eWith its minimalist aluminium body, manual controls and vintage-style exposure guide on the rear, the KF-01 feels especially at home with Leica photography: street, documentary, parties, portraits, travel and those imperfect little moments where available light needs a nudge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 22px; margin-top: 28px;\"\u003eWhy it works so well with Leica cameras\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eLeica cameras have always rewarded photographers who like to stay close to the process. The KEKS KF-01 fits that mindset perfectly. There is no TTL complexity, no menu diving and no oversized plastic flash head. Just a small, well-made manual flash with three output levels and a simple exposure chart to help you work quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eUse it on a Leica M for classic rangefinder flash photography, pair it with a Leica Q for spontaneous night shots, or keep it in the bag with a film body for when the light drops. It is discreet, useful and refreshingly straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #f7f7f7; border-radius: 18px; padding: 22px; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 21px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"font-size: 16px; padding-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact manual flash\u003c\/strong\u003e ideal for Leica M, Q, film cameras and other hot shoe cameras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGuide Number 12\u003c\/strong\u003e for close-range portraits, interiors, social photography and fill flash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree output levels\u003c\/strong\u003e: full, 1\/2 and 1\/3 power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePC sync port\u003c\/strong\u003e for use with compatible vintage and classic cameras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAluminium body\u003c\/strong\u003e with a clean satin black or satin chrome finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear exposure chart\u003c\/strong\u003e for fast manual flash settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRuns on 2x AAA batteries\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving approximately 300 flashes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall footprint\u003c\/strong\u003e: 57 x 22 x 67mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 22px; margin-top: 28px;\"\u003ePerfect for direct flash with character\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eThe KF-01 is not trying to be a studio strobe or a modern TTL speedlight. That is exactly the point. It is made for photographers who want a small flash with personality: close-range portraits, night street photography, family gatherings, events, travel and film-style direct flash images with bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eOn a Leica, it keeps the camera compact and balanced while giving you the extra light needed to shoot with confidence after dark. Think less “technical lighting setup” and more “decisive moment, but with flash”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 22px; margin-top: 28px;\"\u003eSimple, manual and genuinely useful\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eThe rear guide chart makes the KF-01 easy to use with both digital and film cameras. Choose your ISO, estimate your subject distance, select the appropriate aperture and flash power, and shoot. It is a lovely match for photographers who enjoy manual exposure and want their flash to feel as intuitive as their camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; border-radius: 18px; padding: 22px; margin: 28px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 21px; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e KEKS KF-01 Flash\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuide Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e GN12\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Levels:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/1, 1\/2, 1\/3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecycle Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5–8 seconds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBattery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2x AAA batteries\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBattery Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 300 flashes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 57 x 22 x 67mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePC Sync:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 6px 0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin Black or Satin Chrome\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 22px; margin-top: 28px;\"\u003eCompatibility note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eThe KEKS KF-01 is a manual flash designed for cameras with a standard hot shoe or PC sync connection. It does not provide TTL automation or camera-specific electronic flash control. For Leica users, that makes it especially appealing as a compact, simple flash for manual shooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 22px; margin-top: 28px;\"\u003eWho is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003eThe KF-01 is ideal for Leica photographers who want a small, stylish and affordable flash that complements the camera rather than overwhelms it. It is particularly well suited to Leica M film bodies, digital M cameras, Leica Q cameras and anyone who enjoys a more hands-on approach to photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Keks","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":59577889521998,"sku":"KF01B","price":89.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":59577889554766,"sku":"KF01C","price":89.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/1892\/9230\/files\/ebb87c4f-4580-4661-81e5-768f5f5e4b50_orig.jpg?v=1777981259","url":"https:\/\/leicastoremanchester.com\/products\/kf-01-flash","provider":"Leica Store Manchester","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
