Setting the “3D multi-sensor fill-in flash mode”
on the mecablitz (Fig. 9)
• Mount the mecablitz on the camera.
• Switch on the mecablitz and the camera.
• Lightly touch the camera’s shutter release to
induce a data exchange between the flash unit
and the 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.
When a lens without CPU is used, some
cameras will only support the matrix-con-
trolled fill-in flash mode or the standard TTL
flash mode. In such cases the 3D multi-sen-
sor fill-in flash cannot be activated. The LC
display of the mecablitz will then indicate
the corresponding display for the current
flash mode.

4.2 D-TTL flash mode with the
mecablitz 44 AF-4N
This flash mode is only possible in conjunc-
tion with digital Nikon SLR cameras (e.g.
D1X and D100). Digital SLR cameras do not
support the normal TTL flash mode of ana-
log cameras.
This flash mode optimizes a balanced exposure
between subject and background (including fill-in
flash mode) in conjunction with digital SLR came-
ras. Prior to exposure 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-controller. The camera then
adapts TTL flash exposure optimally to the given
photographic situation (D-TTL flash mode).
