Introduction<\/span><\/h2>\n

TTArtisan had earlier released LED lamps in\u00a0 the shape of a 35mm film roll. Later, they also released the RGB version of those lamps. Tiny LED lamps that can be easily carried in a pocket and hidden behind any object to be photographed, adding an extra element to the images. Now, they have released camera flashes in that format, the M01 flash together with the wirelless trigger J01. Let’s have a brief look at them.<\/p>\n

\"camera-icon2\"I tested these falshes on a Nikon Zf<\/a>\u00a0 and a Nikon Zfc.

Handling<\/span><\/h2>\n

The TTArtisan Flash M01 is compact \u2014 slightly larger than the previously released TTArtisan LED lamps. For reference, here\u2019s a size comparison between the LED lamp, the M01 flash, and a standard matchbox.<\/p>\n

The flash is fully manual, no TTL for any brands and no Auto mode either. To turn on or off the flash, press and hold the round button on top. A small indicator LED lights up, showing that the flash is on and at 1\/8 power. Each short press of the button increases the flash power:<\/p>\n
