8.1 Bleep function (bleep)
With the bleep function the user can have some device functions of the flash
unit conveyed acoustically. In this way the photographer can concentrate fully
on the subject and shot and need not pay attention to additional optical sta-
tus displays!
The bleep function acoustically indicates when the flash is ready, the correct
flash exposure or an incorrect setting.
Acoustic signal after the flash unit is switched on:
• A short (approx. 2 second) uninterrupted bleep signal after switching on
indicates the flash readiness of the flash unit.
Bleep signal after shooting:
• A short (approx. 2 second) uninterrupted bleep signal immediately after
the shot indicates that the latter was correctly exposed and that flash readi-
ness remains available. If no bleep signal immediately follows the shot, the
photograph was under-exposed.
• An intermittent bleep signal immediately after the shooting is the signal for
a correctly exposed flash light shot. The flash readiness continues, but only
after a subsequent (approx. 2 second) continuous tone (bleep).
Bleep signals in the automatic flash mode:
• A short bleep as an acoustic alarm is generated in the auto flash mode if the
aperture and ISO setting would exceed the permissible light control range.
The auto aperture is automatically adjusted to the next permissible value.
With the bleep function switched on the symbol is additionally
shown in the display.
Setting procedure see cap. 8.
