6 Programmed Auto Flash Mode
In the programmed auto flash mode the camera automatical-

for optimal results in most photographic situations, including
fill-in flash.
Settings on the camera
Set your camera to Full Auto Mode, Program P or a
Programmed Image Control Mode (landscape, portraiture,
sport, etc.). Select the auto-focus mode on the camera.
Settings on the flash unit

the lens or set the reflector straightaway to “28 mm”.
Having completed the above settings, you can commence
flash photography as soon as the mecablitz indicates flash
readiness.

sharp drop in light from the foreground to the background.

the diffused light will produce a soft and uniform rendition of
both the subject and the background. For this situation the
reflector is turned in such a manner that the flash is bounced

that it is moved by a sufficiently wide angle so that direct
light can no longer fall on the subject.

lock-in position.
The light bounced off the reflecting surfaces produces a soft
