The Nissin MG8000 Extreme Flash Gun

Nissin has developed a new flash gun which they say features the world's fastest "Machine Gun" strobe.

The Nissin MG8000 Extreme Flash Gun has ceramic insulation on the inside of it as well as a unique quartz-based flash tube which ensures the unit remains cool, even in extreme use conditions. When tested, the Nissin MG8000 can produce over 1000 full flashes without any fear of overheating; that's three times more than a general flash.
