The Asahi Pentax Super-Lite Il is @ compact easy-to-operate electronic flash unit
produced with the same engineering skill that perfects the Asahi Pentax System of
Photography. Light and compact, it simply attaches to your Asahi Pentax camera

© The angle of light distribution of most flash guns is designed to match the angle of
standard lenses. The Super-Lite Il is one of the widest-angle electronic flash units on
the market today. Because of the specially designed curvature of the reflector, its angle
of light distribution practically covers the angle of a 28mm super-wide-angle lens.

@ The Super-Lite Il has a unique automatic light output stabilizer. The light output of
many other electronic flash units considerably decreases as you keep flashing units.
This means you will have to open up your lens aperture. The light output of some
units goes down to as much as one f/stop extent after 40 flashes. The light output
stabilizer of the Super-Lite II constantly maintains its output at its maximum at
each flash.

© The Super-Lite Il also operates on AC, powered by the AC Power Pack accessory.

@ The circuitry of the Super-Lite Il is designed for economical power consumption.
Pen-light batteries are inexpensive — and you will not waste the battery power.

© The 1/2000 second flash duration of the Super-Lite Il is so short, you may cap-
ture practically anything you may like to photograph.

© The recycling time (time interval between each flash) is short. You will be ready
to follow fast actions if you act fast.

The Asahi Pentex Super-Lite Il is a highly versatile electronic flash for Asahi Pentax
enthusiasts — as ordinary flash — as bounce flash —as fill-in flash (when photograph-
ing back-lighted subjects.)
