The Vivitar 285HV is one of the most respected and widely used flashes in photographic history — a true industry standard for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Known for its durability, reliability, and flexible control, this flash features both manual and automatic exposure modes, along with an adjustable zoom head to adapt to a variety of shooting situations. It’s an excellent choice for use with nearly any film or digital camera featuring a standard center-pin hotshoe, or as part of a multi-light setup with wireless triggers.

Condition: Mint

This unit is in mint condition with no signs of use. It’s fully functional, clean, and works perfectly in both manual and automatic modes. The battery compartment is pristine, and all controls operate smoothly — a great example of this legendary flash.

Compatibility:
Works with most cameras that use a standard hotshoe with a center sync pin, including 35mm SLRs, DSLRs, and mirrorless systems (note: not TTL-compatible with modern digital systems).
