Adjusting the Flash Unit

This is a general guide to setting the flash angle for various
magnifications with a macro lens. Refer to the angle scale (15°
increments) on the side of the flash head and set the same angle for
both flash heads A and B. The angle specifications in the table below
indicate the inner angle relative to the flash head’s standard position
index (horizontal).
