9 Modelling light (ML)
Modelling light is only possible if the
function is integrated into the camera.
Modelling light (ML) uses a high frequen-
cy strobe light.
It gives the impression of quasi continu-
ous light for 3 seconds.
Modelling light allows you to evaluate
light distribution and shadow prior to the
shot.
Modelling light is activated via the
camera.
10 Flash techniques
10.1 Bounce flash
Bounce flash illuminates the subject more
softly and reduces dense shadows. It also
reduces the drop in light from foreground to
background that occurs for physical reasons.
The main reflector of the flash unit can
be swivelled horizontally and tilted verti-
cally for bounce flash. To do this,
depress the reflector unlocking button
and tilt the reflector. To avoid colour cast
in your shots, the reflective surface
should be colour-neutral or white.
When tilting the main reflector vertically,
make sure that it is turned through an
angle that is wide enough to prevent
direct light from falling on the subject. For
this reason the reflector should be tilted at
least as far as the 60° lock-in position.
Flash ranges do not appear on the
display when the main reflector is turned!
When the reflector head is tilted, the main
reflector is moved to a position of grea-
ter/equal 70 mm in order to prevent the
subject from being additionally illumina-
ted by dispersed light.
