[. . . ] Mode zoom manuel Avec les appareils photo qui ne transmettent pas de données concernant la distance focale de l'objectif, vous devez adapter manuellement la position du zoom du réflecteur principal à cette distance focale. Zoom automatique En cas d'utilisation du flash avec un appareil photo qui transmet des données concernant la distance focale de l'objectif, la position du zoom du réflecteur principal s'adapte automatiquement à cette distance focale. 160 Table 3: Recycling times and number of flashes with different battery types . However, it is worthwhile reading the operating instructions first to learn how to use the flash correctly. [. . . ] This will provide full light coverage of the picture and eliminate the need to continually adjust it to the focal length of the lens. Example: You use a zoom lens with a focal length range of 35 mm to 105 mm. In this case, you set the position of the main reflector of the flash unit to 35 mm. resetting to auto-zoom · Touch the shutter release to begin a data transfer between the flash unit and the camera. After about 5 seconds the display stops flashing and the setting is saved automatically. Pull the wide-angle diffuser out from the main reflector as far as it will go, and then release it. The distance readings and the zoom value are corrected to 12 mm on the display panel. the automatic adjustment of the motor-zoom main reflector is not activated if the Mecabounce is in use. , turn it upwards 90° and push it Auto-zoom mode also occurs if the flash unit is switched on again with the main switch . The flash unit is compatible as a slave flash unit with the wireless Olympus RC flash system (RC = remote control or remote mode). With it one or more slave flash units can be remotely and wirelessly controlled by the camera's built-in flash unit, which operates as the controller flash unit (remote mode). In this process, the flash of the controller flash unit has a control function for the slave flash units, and does not itself contribute to any significant extent to lighting the shot. The slave flash units must be able to receive the light from the controller flash unit with the integrated sensor for remote mode . The camera settings for RC remote mode can be found in the camera's operating instructions. In addition, the slave group (GROUP) selected, the remote channel (CH) and the reflector position (Zoom) are shown. In remote mode, the AF measuring flash of the mecablitz flashes as soon as the flash-ready indicator lights up. As the mecablitz digital only supports TTL und manual M flash modes, automatic flash mode A must not be selected on the camera in RC mode for the slave flash unit. If automatic flash mode A is selected for the slave flash unit on the camera, the slave flash unit will not flash when the photograph is taken. 5 seconds the indicator stops flashing and the setting is memorised automatically.

[. . . ] If a peripheral AF sensor is selected, then the AF measuring beam will not be activated in the flash unit. Should the flash unit fail to function properly or meaningless content The camera does not transfer data to the flash unit · There is no exchange of data between the flash unit and the camera. Warning of shadowing on the edge of the image: the focal length set on the camera lens (converted to the 35 mm format, 24x36) is shorter than the adjusted zoom position of the main reflector. The camera has a between-the-lens shutter (as do most compact cameras), Switching to sync speed is therefore unnecessary. [. . . ]
