9.2.2 SERVO mode

Servo mode is a simple slave mode in which the slave flash unit always triggers
a flash as soon as it receives a light pulse.
Adjustment procedure for servo flash mode
• Set a mode for the camera flash unit without pre-flash.

• Press the "Select" button repeatedly until

blinks on the display.

• Press the + button to activate remote slave

mode.

• Press the + button again and activate ser-

vo mode. In servo mode, only manual
flash mode is possible. Manual flash mode

is automatically activated after swit-

ching to servo mode.

• Partial lighting levels can be set with the + and - buttons.
• Wait for the flash-readiness of all connected flash units. Once the slave flash

unit is ready, its AF measuring beam

ቭ will start blinking.

Slave groups and remote channels can not be set in SERVO mode.

The flash unit may not be activated in remote mode.

Turn off SERVO flash mode
• Press the button sequence repeatedly until

SERVO blinks on the display.

• Press the – button twice to turn the SERVO

mode off.

9.3 Flash bracketing series („FB“)

A series of flash exposures FB (flash bracketing) can be carried out in the TTL
flash modes (

HSS; see 7.1). A flash bracketing series consists of three

successive flash shots with different flash exposure correction values:
• The first shot is carried out without correction value.
• The second shot is made with a minus correction.
• The third shot is made with a plus correction .
• After the third shot, the flash bracketing series is automatically deleted.

A flash bracketing series can only occur if the camera supports the set-
ting of a manual flash exposure correction on the flash unit (see ch. 8
and the camera’s operating instructions)! Otherwise the shots will be
made without correction values!
