11 Troubleshooting
Should it happen that the flash does not work as
specified, switch off the flash unit for about 10 seconds
using the ON/OFF button
. Check the camera settings
and make sure the foot of the flash unit is mounted cor-
rectly in the camera’s accessory shoe.
Replace the batteries with new or freshly charged
batteries.
The flash unit should function normally again once it is
switched back on. If this is not the case, contact your
local dealer.
Below is a list of some of the problems that may occur
when the flash unit is used. For each item, possible
causes and remedies for the problem are listed.
The AF measuring beam of the flash unit is not
activated.
• The flash unit is not ready for firing.
• The camera is not in
„Single-AF (S)“
or
„ONE SHOT“
mode.
• The camera supports only its own internal AF measu-
ring beam.
• Some cameras support the AF measuring beam in the
flash unit only with the camera’s central AF sensor.
If a peripheral AF sensor is selected, then the AF
measuring beam will not be activated in the flash unit.
Activate the central AF sensor.
Automatic switching to the flash sync speed fails to
occur.
• The camera has a between-the-lens shutter (as do
most compact cameras), Switching to sync speed is
therefore unnecessary.
• The camera operates with shutter speeds that are
slower than the flash sync speed. Depending on the
camera mode, there is no switch to flash sync speed
(see the camera’s operating instructions).
The shots have shadows in the bottom of the image.
• Because of parallax error between lens and flash unit,
close-up shots may not, depending on the focal length
at the bottom of the image, be fully illuminated. Turn
the wide-angle diffuser in front of the reflector.
