Not sure about the AF-500FTZ, but al least some Metz flashes can be
set in a 'spot beam only' mode. I usually switch to manual
focussing in low light: spot beams tend to disturb people, and ruin
candid shots.
Some flashes (AF-500FTZ included) use IR for the spot beam.
So, it's invisible? That's neat!
I can certainly see the beam of the AF500FTZ and it's red. It is not
as disruptive as the white beam I have seen coming off Nikon bodies,
but YMMV.
