This compact high-output GN46 flash unit delivers levels of sophistication and camera communication that only Sony can offer, offering reliable flash at high continuous shooting speeds and sync at shutter speeds up to 1/400s. Outstanding durability, intuitive operation via the camera, flexible bounce angle adjustment and wireless radio communication add refined control and versatility.

Flash control linked to camera face detection

With a compatible camera, white balance is automatically adjusted so that the subject’s face is rendered with natural colour. The HVL-F46RM works with a compatible camera face detection to provide ideal lighting for the main subject, even in groups.

Auto white balance accuracy that only original equipment can achieve

Thanks to in-house design, this advanced flash unit transfers colour temperature data to the camera where that data is used to precisely adjust white balance so that colours are rendered naturally in any situation.

Innovative overheating prevention for longer shooting sessions

The use of heat resistant materials plus an optimized flash algorithm provides higher resistance to overheating that allows continuous shooting for longer periods of time. The HVL-46RM uses the same algorithms as the flagship HVL-F60RM2, achieving approx. 1.7x.

Up to 1/400 s shutter sync with a compatible camera for new expression

Used with a compatible camera body the HVL-F46RM allows flash sync up to 1/400 s. This makes it possible to deemphasize the background while using flash to illuminate the main subject, illuminate moving subjects against a bright background and more.
