6.5 Light sensitivity (ISO)

If there is no digital data transfer between the camera and flash unit, the ISO can
be manually set from 6 to 6400.
For flash modes

(automatic) and

(manual), the camera and flash unit

have to be set to the same ISO value.
Setting procedure:

• Press the

button (Parameters) until „ISO“ flas-

hes on the LC display.

• Set the desired ISO value using the

/

but-

tons. The setting takes effect immediately.

• Press the button

to change the LC display back to the normal view. If the

button

is not pressed, the display will change back to the normal view

after about 5 seconds.

During E-TTL flash mode, setting the ISO on the flash unit is only necessary to
achieve the correct distance range indication, not for the function of the flash.
