Metz MECABLITZ 64 AF-1 digital Pentax - Manual (Page 175)

Setting the mode of operation
• Switch on the flash unit with the ባ
button.
The start screen appears. Thereafter, the
flash unit always switches on with the
mode of operation that was used last
(e.g. M flash mode).
• Press the displayed mode of operation on
the touch display as many times as it takes
for the display for selecting the mode of
operation to appear.
• Press the sensor buttons on the
touch display and select the desired mode
of operation.
• Press on the selected mode of operation
that is highlighted in yellow. The setting is
adopted immediately.
• Set a suitable mode of operation on the
camera, e.g. P, Tv, Av, M etc.
• Tap the shutter release to transfer data bet-
ween the flash unit and the camera.
7.2 Automatic P TTL Fill-in flash mode
The automatic P TTL fill-in flash mode is acti-
vated by most cameras when the automatic
programme P is selected and by Vari or sub-
ject programmes during daylight (see camera
operating manual).
Fill-in flash mode overcomes troublesome
shadows and produces a more balanced
exposure between subject and background
with contre-jour shots.
The camera’s computer-controlled metering
system sets the most suitable combination of
shutter speed, aperture and flash output.
Ensure that the contre-jour light source does
not shine directly into the lens, as this will
interfere with the camera’s TTL metering
system!
There is no setting or display for automatic
P TTL fill-in flash in the flash unit.
