Modo flash Auto
Funcionamiento Automático
• Set the operating mode selector
to the required auto-
working aperture.
For the shortest-possible depth-of-field (as is required in
portraiture) the use of an auto-working aperture of f/2 is
recommended. For group shots with a number of people
standing behind each other, set an auto-working aperture
of f/4 to extend the depth-of-field.
• Turn on the flash unit with the main switch
.
• Set the selected auto-working aperture also on the
camera.
• Set the camera to flash synch speed or a slower speed.
• Await flash readiness which is indicated by the green
flash-ready light
.
Caution with zoom lenses!
Due to their design they can cause a loss of light
in the order of up to one f-stop. Furthermore, the
effective aperture can also vary, depending upon
the adjusted focal length. This can be compensa-
ted by correcting the aperture on the flashgun
manually!
