4.2.1 D-TTL 3D flash mode with the
mecablitz 44 AF-4N
This flash mode is only possible in conjunc-
tion with “D-AF-Nikkor lenses”. Some came-
ras (e.g. D100) do not support the D-TTL 3D
flash mode for SPOT exposure metering. This
flash mode will then either be automatically
cancelled or it cannot be activated so that
the normal D-TTL flash mode will be per-
formed.
The D-TTL 3D flash mode optimizes a balanced
exposure between subject and background (in-
cluding fill-in flash) in conjunction with digital SLR
cameras. Prior to exposure a series of almost invi-
sible measuring preflashes are fired by the meca-
blitz which 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. The camera-to-sub-
ject distance (“D-TTL-3D flash mode”) is addi-
tionally taken into account when determining the
optimal flash output.
