diately.

achieve the correct distance range indication, not for the function of the flash.
6.6 Manual partial light output (P)

adjusted to fit the shooting situation with the manual partial light output parame-

view. If the „Return“ button is not pressed, the display will change back to
the normal view after about 5 seconds.

adjusted to fit the flash parameters chosen.
In strobe mode
, reduction of the manual partial light output is only
possible in full intervals.
When the number of flashes (N) and the flash frequency (f) are reset, the
partial light output is not reset.
