Metz MECABLITZ 52 AF-1 digital Olympus - Manual (Page 155)

10.4.4 Learn function
The “Learn function” enables individual
automatic adjustment of the slave flash unit
to the flash technology of the camera’s flash
unit.
In the process, one or more pre-flashes,
e.g. to reduce the “red-eye effect” of the
camera flash unit can be taken into account.
The slave flash unit is then fired to coincide
with the main flash that illuminates the
actual picture.
If the camera’s own flash device provides for
automatic focussing AF measuring flashes,
then due to the system characteristics no
learn operation is possible. If possible, use
another camera mode or change to manual
focussing.
Setting procedure for the learn function
The AF pre-flash function of the camera must
be switched off.
• Press the sensor buttons on the
touch display as many times as it takes for
the selection to appear.
• Press the sensor button on the touch
display.
• "Learning Mode" is ready to learn.
• Press the release button on the camera so
that the camera’s own flash unit is
activated.
If the SERVO flash unit has received a light
pulse, then "LEARN OK" appears in the
display as confirmation.
The macablitz 52 AF-1 digital has learned the
flash of the camera flash unit.
