Setting procedure for “matrix-controlled TTL fill-
in flash” with Group A cameras (Fig. 7)
• Mount the mecablitz on the camera.
• Switch on both the mecablitz and the camera.
• Lightly touch the camera’s shutter release to
induce a data exchange between flash unit and
camera.

Continue depressing the “Mode” key until “TTL
” flashes on the LC display.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The
LC display returns to its normal state after
approx. 5 sec.

Continue depressing the “Mode” key on the
mecablitz until “TTL” (
without
the symbol)
flashes on the LC display.
• The setting becomes immediately effective. The
LC display returns to its normal state after
approx. 5 sec.
4.1.3 3D multi-sensor fill-in flash with
mecablitz 44 AF-4N
This flash mode optimizes a balanced exposure
between subject and background. Prior to exposu-
re a series of almost invisible measuring preflashes
are fired by the mecablitz. These are evaluated by
the TTL multi-sensor and the camera’s micro-con-
troller. The camera then adapts TTL flash exposure
optimally to the given photographic situation (“mul-
ti-sensor fill-in flash”). When “D-AF-Nikkor” lenses
are used, the camera-to-subject distance will be
additionally taken into account when determining
the optimal flash output (“3D multi-sensor fill-in
flash mode”).
Different cameras from Group A in Table 1 (e.g. F5,
F70, F80, F90, F90x and F100) support the “3D
multi-sensor fill-in flash”.
Some cameras (e.g. F5, F80 and F100) do
not support the 3D multi-sensor fill-in flash
mode for SPOT exposure metering. This flash
mode will then either be automatically can-
celled or it cannot be activated so that the
normal TTL flash mode will be performed.
