Nissin is poised to launch a hotshoe-mounted flashgun, claimed to be capable of maintaining a continuous burst of more than 1,000 frames without overheating.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The MG8000, on show at the recent CP+ trade show, outperforms Nikon?s new SB-910 and Canon?s Speedlite 580EX II, claims Nissin.<\/p>\n<p>The MG8000 is Nissin?s response to photographers? demands for flash units that can keep up with continuous shooting.<\/p>\n<p>Maintaining its full guide number, and a consistent output, the MG8000 recycles in 3 seconds for the first 200 shots, and then takes 5-7 seconds to recycle after that. <\/p>\n<p>The company claims that tests with Nikon and Canon units show that both drop their guide numbers, and actually underexpose to avoid overheating. <\/p>\n<p>Nissin says it has developed a new ceramic insulation for the inside of the gun as well as a new quartz-based flash tube, such as is used in studio flash-heads. <\/p>\n<p>The company claims this provides better performance and maintains a lower temperature so the gun does not damage itself, and the quartz tube has a longer operating life than traditional units. <\/p>\n<p>A glass screen is designed to protect the front Fresnel lens from the heat. <\/p>\n<p>The MG8000 has a guide number of between 40-60m at ISO 100, is compatible with the PS3000 portable power pack and is due to go on sale in the spring. <\/p>\n<p>Pricing has yet to be set, but Nissin representatives suggested 50,000 yen (approx. \u00a3400) as a guide. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2012\/02\/Nissin_MG8000_bk.jpg\" alt=\"Nissin MG8000\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>[Editing by Chris Cheesman]<\/p>\n<p>Pictures: Damien Demolder<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yokohama &#8211;
