The setting becomes immediately effective. After
approx. 5 sec. the LC display returns to its normal
state.
Setting correction values on the mecablitz 44 AF-4N
when using cameras from Group B of Table 1
The correction value is set on the camera. Please
refer to Table 1 for the camera types or observe
the corresponding details in the operating instruc-
tions for the given camera.
4.4 Correct exposure indication in TTL flash
mode (Fig. 17)
“o.k.” correct exposure confirmation only appears
on the mecablitz LC display if the shot was cor-
rectly exposed in TTL flash mode (or D-TTL flash
mode when using the 44 AF-4N with a digital SLR
camera)!
If “o.k.” is not displayed after the exposure, then
this means that the shot was underexposed. The
shot will then have to be repeated with the next
smaller f-number (e.g. f/8 instead of f/11) or the
distance to the subject or the reflecting surface
(e.g. when bouncing the flash) must be reduced.
Please observe the maximum flash range indi-
cated on the mecablitz LC display (see 5.4.1) and
the information given in section 5.5.
Also refer to section 5.3 regarding correct
exposure indication in the camera’s view-
finder!
4.5 Underexposure warning in TTL flash
mode (Fig. 18)
In certain modes (for example “P” and “A”), some
Group A Nikon cameras listed in Table 1 will give
underexposure warning for flash shots by way of
aperture increments (EV) on the LC display of the
mecablitz (see Table 1 and the operating instruc-
tions of the camera).
If the “OK” correct exposure confirmation does
not light up on the mecablitz after a flash shot
was taken, or if the flash symbol in the camera
viewfinder flashes, then the LC display of the
mecablitz briefly indicates the underexposure
value between -0.3 EV and -3.0 EV in one-third
increments.
Example: The LC display in our example indicates
underexposure by -1.3 EV. In this case,
the shot should be repeated, e.g. in the
“A” camera mode, by opening the
