The measured aperture (total of flash and ambient light) appears
in the left digital display, and as a flashing mark on the analog aperture scale. The aperture for the
share of ambient light is additionally indicated on the aperture scale (in our example f/8).
3.2.2 Multiple flash
Occasionally the light output from a single flash may not be sufficient to
enable you to work at the aperture desired. In that case, simply push
the top value button until the desired f/number appears in the display.
The digital display of the time

disappears and the number of flashes
required is indicated (e.g.: F4 = 4 flashes).
The SIXTOMAT F2 will calculate up to maximum of 10 flash sequences.
