Bounce lighting
When lighting a subject in front of
the wall, an unnecessary sharp
shadow may appear on the wall
behind the subject resulting in a
disappointing picture. Bounce the
light off the ceiling or wall to soften
the light on the subject, and the
shadow will fade.
Turn the flash head up. It turns upward to 45° >60° >75° >90°.
Or tilt the flash head sideway to left 30° >60° >90° or to right
30° >60° >90° >120° >150° >180°.
Or mixing it upward/ sidways, you can set it in multiple direc-
tions as shown.
When the flash head stays at turning or tilting position, the zoom
setting position of Di600 is automatically set at the position for
a50mm focal length lens.
The wall or ceiling in this case should be a flat surface and white
color is preferable. Colored ceiling or wall may reflect its color on
the subject.
AF assist light emitter
Under a low light condition, or in a dark place, the AF assist light
will automatically emit the beam and illuminate the subject, so that
the camera can easily focus on the subject in darkness. The beam
is however not shown in the picture.
