Automatic adjustment occurs for lens focal
lengths from 24 mm.

The automatic adjustment will not be activa-
ted if the reflector is swivelled, if the wide-
angle diffuser

ቪ is pulled out, or a

Mecabounce (accessory) is mounted.

If so desired, the position of the reflector can
be manually adjusted in order to achieve par-
ticular lighting effects (such as spot effect
etc.).

Manual zoom mode

The zoom position of the reflector must be
adjusted manually to the lens focal length
when used with a camera that doesnít trans-
mit the data related to the lens focal length.

In this case auto-zoom mode is not possible!

After switching on the flash unit, „Zoom“
appears in the display and the current zoom
position of the reflector appears.

• Press the

ቨ button as often as it takes

for the selection menu to appear.

the position for the shortest focal length of
the zoom lens.
