Use of Wide Adapter 199A
Speedlite 199A comes with a Wide Adapter
which should be attached when using 24mm
and 28mm lenses. When needed, simply slide
it on the flash head. When not using it, store
it in the internal pocket of the flash case.
For further information, refer to p. 36.
Attaching to the Camera
1. On the 199A, there is a locking foot to
prevent the unit from slipping out of the
camera’s accessory shoe. When you slip in
the flash unit, the locking lever should be
at the position opposite the direction of
the arrow. Turn the power switch off and
insert the foot of the flash unit as far as it
goes and then secure the unit by moving
the lock lever in the direction of the arrow.
2. When using a camera without a direct­
ly-coupled contact on the accessory shoe,
use Synchro Cord A between the front of
the flash unit and the PC socket of the
3. When removing the flash unit from the
camera, move the lever in the direction
opposite the arrow.
* Before attaching the flash unit to a camera,
wipe off the contacts clean.
