Extremely fast Flash Sequences
Robust housing, safe Protection
The basic housing of the M500 consits of a continuous casting profile. It keeps all components safely thus making it an extremely robust system. A hole in the housing allows the fixation of flash umbrellas. The umbrellas are clamped via a protective screw thus making sure that the umbrellas do not get damaged. Umbrellas up to 10 mm diameter can be fixed.
The standard equipment also has a glass bell with different coatings. This gives an excellent protection and allows the adaptation of the color temperature.
Even Light Distribution
The M500 works with a flash tube in Omega shape. In comparison with the U-shaped tube, it gives a much better light and an extremely even light distribution. The flash tube has a plug-in connection and can be changed by the user. The flash release can be executed via the sync cable, foto cell, IR-flash or remote control. The sync voltage is 5 V. Therefore, safe operation with all modern cameras is guaranteed.
Bidirectional Remote Control
The M500 is equipped with a bidirectional remote control module. This module works together with the Priolite remote control module which is plugged-in to the hot-shoe of the camera. Almost all functions of the flash light can be done via remote control. The display on the remote control indicates the capacity of the equipment and its flash readiness. Through the organization of 4 teams and 9 equipments each, a total of 36 equipments can individually be controlled. The system works in the frequency range of 2.4 GHz and therefore is authorized worldwide for such applications.
Compatible Accessories
The Priolite adapter system is compatible with Bowens S-type bayonet. Also many Hensel reflectors can be fixed with the clamp-type mechanism.
Scope of Delivery
The M500 is delivered with a 1,5 m long sync cable, a 3,5 mm jack plug, mains cable, flash tube, modelling light and glass bell.
Made in Germany
The M500 was designed, developed and manufactured in Germany and has a very stringent quality control. Priolite has a 2 year warranty with the exception of the flash tube and modelling light.

Extremely fast Flash Sequences
The M500 allows extremely fast flash sequences. In less than 1 second it is flash ready at full capacity and releases up to 6 flashes in one second. A powerful, temperature controlled cooling fan prevents overheating of the equipment. When reducing the capacity, the excess flash energy gets automatically internally reduced (APD).
The M500 has a 3 digit LED display for adjusting the flash capacity. The important signal ready, also the flash readiness, are indicated by the illumination of the test button and additionally by the illumination of the glass dome on the surface of the equipment. Therefore, the flash readiness is recognizable from a distance.
PFC – Power Factor Correction
The built-in high power pack for loading of the capacitors is equipped with a control unit to keep the electricity at a constant level and the usage of several flash units is absoluteley safe.
