5.1 Display of the flash mode

The current flash mode is shown in the

display. Depending on the type of camera,

different displays are available for the selec-

ted TTL flash mode (e.g. and )

and the manual flash mode M (see 7.3).

5.2 Range display

When using cameras and a lens with CPU,

the range is indicated in the display.

For this a data exchange must have occurred

between the camera and flash unit, for exam-

ple by tapping the shutter release. The range

can be displayed either in metres (m) or feet

(ft) - see 11.7).

The flash range is not displayed when . . .

- no data is transmitted from the camera.

- when the reflector head is tilted out of its

normal position (upwards or sideways).

- if the flash unit is working in REMOTE

MASTER, REMOTE SLAVE or SERVO mode.

Range display in TTL- and TTLHSS flash

modes

In the TTL flash modes

and S;

see 7.1) the value for the minimum and the

maximum range of the flash unit is displayed.

The value indicated relates to subjects with a

reflection factor of 25%, which applies to

most photographic situations.

Strong deviations from this reflection factor,

as in the case of highly reflective or poorly

reflective subjects, may affect the flash range

of the flash unit.

The subject should be in the range of 40% to

70% of the maximum range. This will give the

electronics sufficient scope for compen-

sation.

To prevent overexposure, the minimum

distance to the subject shown in the display

should not be undershot.

Adjustment to the photographic situation at

hand can be achieved by, for example,

changing the aperture of the setting on the

lens.
