Nissin MG80 Pro Flash for Cameras - Manual (Page 24)

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.
Press the rotate lock to turn the flash head up and
down. It turns upward to 45° >60° >75° >90° and
downward to 7°
The flash head sideway to left 30° > 60° > 90° >
120° > 150° > 180° or to right 30° > 60° > 90° >
120° > 150° >180°.
Or mixing it upward/downward/ sideways, you can set it in multiple directions as
shown.
When the flash head stays at turning or tilting position, the zoom setting position
of MG80 Pro is automatically set at the position for a 50mm 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.
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. AF light will be
disabled if the camera body has a built-in AF assist light.
