FLASHPHOTO GROUP UNITS
Quick Auto 310
With a guide number of 34 ( A S A 100,
meters), this is the most powerful flash
unit generally available, offering a wide
coverage to give enough illumination
over the picture area of a 24mm super
wide-angle lens without the aid of a
wide adapter.
(The Quick Auto 310 employs the
world's first "TTL Centralized Control
Flash" System: the SBC sensors of the
OM-2 TTL Direct Light Measuring sys-
tem work also as a flash-light sensor. The
System features: 1) the light accep-
tance angle accords with the picture
angle of individual lens attached to the
camera, 2) the ASA film speed and
f/stop needn't be set on the electronic
flash unit, 3) all f/stops of the lens can
be used continuously, 4) the close-
distance autoflash range is expanded,
and 5) automatic bounce and diffuse
flash, and extreme close-up with the
Auto Bellows can be readily performed.)
With cameras other than the OM-2, the
flash unit provides ordinary automatic
flash capability at F4, F5.6 & F8 (ASA
100). HI and LOW (1/4 power) manual
settings are possible. Also incorporates
an auto check lamp. Operates off 4 pen-
light batteries with any direct contact
camera. Can be used together with the
Bounce Grip, permitting a choice of
various power sources. (Nickel-
cadmium batteries cannot be used.)
Bounce Grip
This unit consists of the grip and
bracket. The bracket can be connected
to the grip instantly and slid to a desired
position; capable of tilting through an
angle of 90°. Four 1.5V C batteries are
inserted into the grip to make it a
higher-output power source. It also
allows automatic flash photography in
bounce light in conjunction with the
Remote Sensor. (Nickel-cadmium bat-
teries cannot be used.)
