6.2 Flash calculation
for changed measuring times
If the measurement shows that the ambient light part in
relation to the flash light part does not correspond to
your wishes in the overall lighting, the STARLITE 2
calculates on the basis of the measurement taken the
influence of altered measuring times.
Other measuring times can be set directly using the
setting wheel without taking another measurement. The
calculation of the new result appears directly on the
display.
Note:
In the event of altered measuring times, you must
ensure that the flash light duration is not longer
than the preselected measuring time.
If this is the
case, a new measurement must be taken.
6.3 Multiple flash calculation
Occasionally, the light output from a single flash may
not be sufficient to enable you to work at the aperture
desired. In that case, you can preselect the desired
f-stop. Keep the right function button depressed and
select with the setting wheel the sub-function
.
Release the menu button and select the desired
f-stop.
The STARLITE 2 calculates on the basis of the
measurement already taken the number of flashes
required for the desired f-stop. The digital display of the
time disappears and the number of flashes required is
indicated, (e.g.
F4
= 4 flashes) The STARLITE 2 will
calculate up to a max. of 9 flash sequences.
