| The LEICA SF 24D electronic flash unit is designed to be compact, but also to provide the maximum distance between the flash reflector and the camera lens, which minimizes the risk of red eye when photographing people and animals when off-camera flash is inconvenient or impossible. The LEICA SF 24D with a metric guide number of 24 (at ISO 100) is used whenever maximum freedom of operation and top performance in flash photography with the LEICA DIGILUX 2 are needed. As with the integral flash unit, the LEICA DIGILUX 2 also regulates the necessary output tha attached LEICA SF 24D automatically based on subject parameters. The illumination angle corresponds to a focal length range of 35 to 85 mm in the 35 mm format and can be extended by means of two supplied diffusers, enabling precise flash operation across the entire focal length range of the LEICA DIGILUX 2. Power is supplied by two 3 Volt 123 A lithium batteries that provide rapid flash recycling

| LEICA SF 24D is an improved flash unit with automatic guide number control. The optimized functions offered by the LEICA SF 24D make it possible to control flash exposure directly through the camera, making this unit the perfect accessory for a wide range of Leica cameras. The LEICA SF 24D is suitable for use with Leica rangefinder and SLR cameras, and can also be connected to the LEICA CM analogue compact camera and the LEICA DIGILUX 2. The flash unit automatically recognizes the type of camera to which it is connected, and adjusts itself to the relevant operating mode. Ease of use and compatibility with the full range of modern flash techniques are features of the LEICA SF 24D.The LEICA SF 24D has retained all the application features of its predecessor model the LEICA SF 20, and has complemented these with new functions. For example, the range of automatic apertures has been enhanced. All apertures from 2.0 to 11 are available with this new-dedicated flash unit. The LEICA SF 24D also provides improved flash compensation of +/- 3 EV. The illumination angle of the LEICA SF 24D corresponds to a 35 mm focal length for the 35 mm system. The two ancillary screens supplied with the unit for the wide angle and telephoto range cover focal lengths of 24 mm and 85 mm respectively. The flash unit automatically recognizes the two diffuser screens supplied, and immediately adjusts the range display to the new guide number.s the range display to the new guide number.
