Best for
A Metz 58 AF-1 - a German-made third-party flash matching first-party flagship guide numbers (GN58 = similar to Nikon SB-900). Well-regarded for reliability and optical performance. Metz's camera-flash business ended around 2015, making these used-only now, but the flashes remain capable working tools.
Frequently asked questions
Is Metz still in business?
No - Metz exited the camera flash business around 2015, and the brand's camera-flash assets were subsequently sold. Existing Metz flashes remain serviceable but new Metz flashes are not being made. Available only on the used market.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
