The MG80 Pro Flash Introduces an Unparalleled Feature Set Targeting Event and Location Photographers – The MG80 Pro’s robust heat resistance, flexible power options, including lithium ion battery support, and advanced wireless control system make MG80 Pro a natural choice for event and location portrait shooters.
