Into the future with tradition

For decades, Metz has played a leading role in professional ﬂash

photography. It’s no wonder, because the company’s product range

is very diverse. Ranging from handy and compact up to powerful

handheld ﬂashguns, there is just the right light for any need. The

highly-developed SCA adapter system is another Metz strength.

It makes it possible for Metz SCA ﬂash units to be used on many

cameras. Metz thus successfully manufactures products that stand out

due to their versatility, long service life, and quality.

Excellent

quality

Metz ﬂash units operated convincingly

in many tests. This is the case for light

performance as well as reliability and

handling. In order to maintain this

quality, the Metz plants in Zirndorf

near Nuremberg consistently rely on

development and production in its

German location. Highly-qualiﬁed

personnel and our own training

system, as well as the know-how from

decades of development work, combined with demanding quality

management (ISO 9001) in all corporate divisions guarantee that

the highest demands are met: Metz – always ﬁrst class.

Technical

perfection

Decades of development experi-

ence and production in Germany

ensure the high technical standard

of Metz devices. The use of high-

quality components in connection

with the most modern high-tech

SMD assembly machines ensure

that you can rely on Metz prod-

ucts. Convincing evidence for this

is the worldwide marketing of

high-quality products, both in the

ﬂash sector as well as in ultramod-

ern TV production.

Metz – Ideas

have a future

Through an entire series of

technical pioneer work, the

Metz plants have established

an excellent reputation over

many decades. This is the result

of core competences in the

areas of electronics and plastics

engineering. An entire series of

innovations, such as the world’s

ﬁrst integrated USB port in the

mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital and

mecablitz 48 AF-1 digital, or the

self-learning Slave Mode in the

mecablitz 28 CS-2 digital, are

typical examples of this.

More fun – better pictures

ﬂash photographer has to spend time

on f-stop calculations or use various

formulas. Intelligent units have now

taken over most of the work. With the

help of various special functions, one

can concentrate on the essentials,

i.e. the picture composition. That

way, using a ﬂash is really fun!

PHOTO GALLERY

Using a ﬂash pays off: Anyone using additional light when taking a photograph obtains better results, because in

post-processing, it isn’t possible to obtain missing colors or brilliance from the picture:

The methods:

Using a ﬂash doesn‘t only mean

ﬂooding a dark subject with light;

rather it also means handling this

light in a target manner as well as

creatively. There are very different

methods available to achieve this. It

starts with a direct ﬂash of the subject

with a ﬂash unit fastened to the

camera, and continues with a bounce

ﬂash, which is made possible by

turning and tilting the reﬂector head.

This way, the light can be redirected

either with a special bounce diffuser

or with an extendable, integrated

reﬂector card. In addition, there are

other ﬂash methods that can be

achieved through an “off-camera”

use of the units. Adjusting the ﬂash

exposure plays a major role in the

effect of a subject. In many Metz

ﬂash devices, the amount of light can

be controlled variably, and thus

balanced entirely according to need.

In this way, a lighting mood is never

lost. There is even considerable

advantage in using a Metz ﬂash in

daylight. Shadowed areas or back-

light can be brightened optimally in

this way, and it enables pictures with

undreamed-of sharpness and bril-

liance. In contrast to bygone eras,

ﬂashes and cameras themselves

already contribute a great deal to

successful exposure. These days, no

With System ﬂash units, using a ﬂash is a great deal of

fun. Thanks to their being highly-developed and fully

automatic, you only have to attach the ﬂash, and away

you go. System ﬂash units are available in different

versions. In this way, they provide a speciﬁc connection

for a speciﬁc brand of camera, with which it works

together perfectly. The best examples of this are the Metz

mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital, which was singled out as the

“Best Flash Unit in Europe 2007/2008”*, or the Metz

mecablitz 48 AF-1 digital.

The ﬂexibility of Metz mecablitz units can be seen in the different ﬂash families. They have the respective functional

equipment to go along with the different requirements proﬁles. In principle, there are the following groups:

Cameras can change, but not Metz! The unique special

feature of Metz SCA ﬂash units is that one and the same

ﬂash unit can be used with different cameras – it doesn’t

matter whether they are digital or analog. By simply

replacing the adapter, system cameras of different manu-

facturers can be used. Flash units with SCA adapters are

particularly good for reﬂex cameras, because they offer

the richest array of special functions. Of course, the

SCA modules are also suitable for cameras from many

other manufacturers, because of the adapters available.

PRODUCT FAMILIES

* EISA Award 2007/2008

Automatic ﬂash units are connected to the camera via

a hot-shoe contact or a sync cord connection and have

their own automatic ﬂash control. This means that it isn’t

the camera that controls the ﬂash, rather the ﬂash itself

responds intelligently and meters the light as precisely

as required by the subject. There are automatic ﬂash

units ranging from professional handheld ﬂash guns to

small, handy compact ﬂashes.

For compact digital cameras (with ﬂash connectors),

there is the particularly handy mecablitz 20 C-2 in this

category, which offers a vertically-tilting reﬂector, despite

its minimal size.

The group of slave ﬂash units is intended to be used for

particularly varied and interesting directed lighting. This is

because they can be used as so-called “off-camera” ﬂashes,

because they can be positioned anywhere in the room.

Because they don‘t need a direct contact to the camera,

they are especially interesting for owners of compact digital

cameras that don‘t have a ﬂash connection option.

With the SCA 3083 digital Slave Adapter (Metz Remote

System), any current model of SCA ﬂash unit is given addi-

tional slave qualities and in this way becomes a member

of the family. Even the mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital or the

48 AF-1 digital can be used as a “slave”, even though they

are not directly assigned to this category. In this mode of

operation, they also support the ﬂash modes of the respective

camera manufacturer.

AUTOMATIC FLASH UNITS SLAVE FLASH UNITS

Using a ﬂash is more fun than ever before. It’s no wonder, because

with Metz system ﬂash units, absolute operating comfort is available.

Clearly-arranged displays, some of them even illuminated, give

information, for example, about what values the respective ﬂash pro-

gram completely automatically sets. Sophisticated ﬂash techniques

are therefore child‘s play to use. There is also the guaranteed future

factor for units with an integrated USB port. It’s not for nothing that

the mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital was given the prize for the “Best Flash

Unit in Europe 2007/2008”*.

SYSTEM FLASH UNITS FLASH TIP

Spanning large distances:

The choice of ﬂash mode decisively affects the

mood in photography. The pictures compared

on this page show an effectively brightened

subject that was at a great distance. In this con-

nection, it was wise to use a powerful ﬂash unit

such as the Metz mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital. It

can also brighten parts of pictures distant from

one another both effectively and extremely

accurately. There are special camera-speciﬁc

functions available for this purpose, depending

on the version.

Obtaining the lighting mood:

Thanks to modern ﬂash controllers such as, for

example, E-TTL, i-TTL, P-TTL, and ADI, the light

output of Metz system ﬂash units can be control-

led by the camera. If the existing lighting mood

is to be retained, it is therefore important to use

a shutter time that is longer than the ﬂash synch

time. For portraits, however, an exposure time

of 1/60 second should not be exceeded.

For the ambitious

Best ﬂash unit in Europe

2007/2008*

Experts from 50 different trade

journals from 18 European countries

awarded this coveted prize to the

Metz mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital in

the Photo Accessories category. The

innovative high-performance unit was

the ﬁrst ﬂash equipped with a USB

port. It can be used to conveniently

update the speciﬁc ﬁrmware of each

variation of the model via the compu-

ter and Internet. It looks sleek, adjusts

the ﬂash exposure with every trick

in the book, is intuitive to use and

tremendously powerful. Equipped

with innovative developments, the

Metz mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital

provides state-of-the-art secondary

reﬂector technology, high-perform-

ance power management, multi-zone

AF measuring ﬂash, and a fully

swiveling reﬂector system. The new

top Metz model transmits all camera-

speciﬁc system ﬂash modes from

Canon, Nikon, Pentax/Samsung,

Olympus/Panasonic or Sony Alpha

cameras (as of 03/2008), including

the respective wireless TTL mode. Due

to its high guide number, the 58 AF-1

digital is not only especially powerful,

but is also outstanding for bounce

ﬂash use. For its vertical as well as

horizontal rotating and swiveling re-

ﬂector, Metz integrated an extendible

reﬂector card for the ﬁrst time. Addi-

tional brilliance can be obtained for

the close-up range via the integrated,

system-controlled, secondary reﬂector

for bounce ﬂash.

automatic ﬂash modes. They facilitate

precision light output, tailor-made for

each individual subject. Numerous

manual intervention options comple-

ment the photographic creative ﬂexi-

bility. Supported by a fully swiveling

reﬂector system, which also has an

extendible reﬂector card and a

diffuser, almost unlimited possibilities

open up for creative directed lighting.

Thanks to the slave function, the

48 AF-1 digital can even be used

detached from the camera. In the

respective camera-speciﬁc wireless

TTL mode, it can thus be used as a

slave unit. It is an outstanding ﬂash unit

for committed amateur photographers.

Presenting the Metz mecablitz

36 AF-4C digital for Canon, or

alternatively the 36 AF-4N digital for

Nikon, in the advantageous Cobra

design. With these two sophisticated

entry-level models Metz has the right

ﬂash answer ready for groups of users

of Canon or Nikon digital cameras.

The mecablitz 36 AF-4C digital pro-

vides E-TTL ﬂash mode; the 36 AF-4N

for Nikon has i-TTL ﬂash mode. In

addition, they are impressive because

of their likeably easy operation. Even

bounce ﬂash becomes child’s play,

due to the vertically-tilting reﬂector.

The manually-adjustable zoom

reﬂector has other advantages.

By adjusting the reﬂector to different

focal lengths, the illumination angle

of the 36 AF-4 digital can be

optimally utilized.

A second look

Many wedding photographs are exclusively

standard poses. Anyone who comes up with

additional ideas here can score bonus points.

Why not photograph the bridal couple or wed-

ding guests during small talk? With some ﬂash,

the subject is given additional sharpness and

brilliance. For this purpose, there are different

partial light output levels to choose from with

Metz handheld ﬂash guns.

The unique special feature of Metz SCA ﬂash units is that one and

the same ﬂash unit can be used with different cameras – it doesn’t

matter whether they are digital or analog. By simply replacing the

adapter, system cameras from different manufacturers can be used,

because they offer the richest array of special functions.

Flash units with SCA adapters are just as suitable for system camera

owners as for medium-format camera owners. All members of the

SCA family meet this criterion, whether it is a handheld ﬂash gun or

a compact ﬂash.

SCA FLASH UNITS

FLASH TIP

Perfectly-equipped

Tough professional use requires the maximum

ﬂash power. The new, practical, high-power

Power Pack P 76, which attaches to your belt,

provides even more energy. This increases ﬂash

output, while simultaneously reducing the ﬂash

recycle time. This is a dramatic improvement,

which makes it possible to fall back on maximum

ﬂash power when taking a battery-draining

series of shots.

Powerful handheld ﬂash guns

Worldwide, professional photogra-

phers put their trust in the powerful

76 MZ-5 digital from Metz. Above

all at weddings and fashion shows,

its ability to take fast series of shots

pays off. Its secondary reﬂector –

which makes it possible to set perfect

highlights in the eye – is worth its

weight in gold. It goes without saying

that the camera-speciﬁc system ﬂash

modes of the various manufacturers

can also be used perfectly with this

professional ﬂash, through different

SCA adapters.All menu navigation

settings can be activated from the

device itself, and a locking function

means you won’t accidentally change

ﬁxed values. Of course, the 76 MZ-5

Light power for pros

digital keeps up with the times and

provides outstanding ﬂash conven-

ience with a great deal of creative

ﬂexibility in setting up shots. Discrimi-

nating photographers will appreciate

the lasting ﬂash performance ensured

by the NiMH rechargeable battery

and the Metz charger. It offers consid-

erably more power than the previous

NiCad rechargeable battery. The

control unit of the 76 MZ-5 digital is

specially equipped with a large,

illuminated dot matrix display. Plus,

the reﬂector of the zoom ﬂash unit

automatically adapts to a focal length

range of 24 - 105 mm depending on

the type of camera. A wide-angle

diffusing disk, included with the ﬂash,

enables expansion to 20 mm.

The TTL mode and the automatic

functions can be just as easily set as

manual partial lighting, via the practi-

cal dial on the top of the 45 CL-4

digital. This ﬂash unit, specially

designed for digital cameras, also

offers all the important special func-

tions listed above for the 76 MZ-5

digital, including high-speed synchro-

nization (HSS). The reﬂector‘s vertical

and horizontal tilt and swivel abilities

can also be used for indirect ﬂash

lighting, just like on the 76 MZ-5

digital. The Power Pack P 76 is

available for particularly intensive

professional use, which can increase

the ﬂash output and further reduce

the ﬂash recycle time.

For committed amateur photographers

Variable entry-level model:

In conjunction with the respective

SCA adapter, the mecablitz 44 MZ-2

digital can be used with almost any

analog SLR camera as well as with

digital cameras from Nikon and

Olympus/Panasonic (Four Thirds

standard). The powerful motor zoom

compact ﬂash model (GN 44) with

the large light angle of 28-105 mm

can be used either in TTL, automatic,

or manual ﬂash mode and is distin-

guished by the interesting special

functions. For example, its strengths

include the Nikon i-TTL ﬂash mode,

which makes ﬁll-in ﬂash possible in

daylight to effectively brighten far

too dark shadowy areas, second

curtain synchronization (important to

enable more natural blurring effects)

and much more. In addition, the

44 MZ-2 digital supports the special

ﬂash functions for cameras from

Hasselblad, Mamiya, Rollei, and Leica.

SCA FLASH UNITS SYSTEM FLASH UNITSAUTOMATIC FLASH UNITSSLAVE FLASH UNITS 27

The ﬂash units in this family don’t have TTL ﬂash mode; instead, they

have the so-called automatic ﬂash mode, in addition to manual ﬂash

mode. Numerous photographers still make use of this simple but

extremely effective form of ﬂash measurement. With automatic ﬂash

mode, it isn’t the camera that controls the ﬂash, but instead, the

photocell integrated in the ﬂash measures the light reﬂected from

the object. It is a really nice thing!

AUTOMATIC FLASH UNITS FLASH TIP

Fill-in ﬂash

Backlighting makes interesting light effects

possible, if you know how to use it correctly. A

ﬂash should be used in any case. With the ﬂash

output reduced by 1 or 2 f-stops, it is possible

to retain the character of the existing light.

The higher the guide number, the greater the

range of the ﬂash unit. However, when compa-

ring, it is important to make sure that the same

focal length and the same ISO speciﬁcation

are used.

FLASH TIP

Long exposure times

It is worth experimenting with exposure times

that are longer than the ﬂash sync speed.

For moving objects, interesting blurring effects

and a corresponding brightening of the fore-

ground can be obtained in a range of approx.

1 second. By the way, the easiest way to ex-

tend the range of a ﬂash unit is to increase the

ISO setting on the camera. If you use ISO 1600

instead of ISO 100, then the sensitivity of the

photo chip increases is quadrupled.

Simply a powerful light:

The powerful Metz handheld ﬂashgun

family begins with the robust Metz

mecablitz 45 CL-1. It offers a fully

swiveling and tilting reﬂector, high

light output with easy handling and

is reduced down to the essentials.

There is a choice of 5 automatic

apertures. Mainly intended for the

owners of analog cameras, even

professional photographers with

modern DSLR cameras swear by the

automatic ﬂash mode of the 45 CL-1.

Thanks to the included modern NiMH

rechargeable battery, it is possible to

have a high number of ﬂashes with

low recycling times.

In order to be able to fall back on

maximum ﬂash power when taking a

series of shots, the practical, high-

power Power Pack P 76, which

attaches to your belt, can be used in

connection with the optionally

available V 45 cable.

For price-conscious beginners

Small, but look out:

This is an ideal complement for every-

one who loves compactness and

doesn’t want to go without good

ﬂash photos. The currently smallest

compact ﬂash unit from Metz is

clearly more effective than the ﬂash

integrated into the camera. The

mecablitz 20 C-2 with GN 20 at

ISO100/21°and35mmfocal

length is intended for all those who

prefer a ﬂash which will also ﬁt into

your jacket pocket. This small, chic

model offers two automatic apertures.

And the special key feature is the

swivel reﬂector! LED displays on the

back of the unit provide information

about the ﬂash readiness and also the

correct exposure.

Slave mode (light controlled):

With the mecablitz 28 CS-2

digital, you have a pure slave

ﬂash unit at your disposal that only

ﬂashes when you want it to – with

any camera. This is made possible

by its learning function, which

recognizes the pre-ﬂash of your camera and

only responds to its main ﬂash. With this

model, the picture results can be controlled

very easily via the plus/minus buttons.

Metz slave mode

(wireless Metz remote system):

This clever Metz system facilitates targeted

light control for two Metz ﬂash units. Here,

one is attached directly to the camera as a

so-called master ﬂash. In contrast, the other

slave ﬂash unit can be positioned anywhere

in the room. For this type of slave mode,

a current Metz SCA ﬂash unit is equipped

with an SCA slave adapter (SCA-3083)

instead of the SCA camera adapter, which

is used for a conventional ﬂash.

This slave adapter makes

additional slave qualities possible.

By using a mecalux 11 as a

server ﬂash trigger, a ﬂash unit

can also be activated. However,

all settings must be made on the

ﬂash unit itself here.

Slave mode for the respective camera

manufacture:

Another way of using slave mode is opened

up by the two system ﬂash units mecablitz

58 AF-1 digital and mecablitz 48 AF-1

digital. Both models are not directly

assigned to the slave category, but they

still can be used as intelligent slave variants

as well. Here, they support the ﬂash modes

of the respective camera manufacturer. In

addition, the mecablitz 58 AF-1 digital has

a master function that you can

always use if the integrated ﬂash

of the camera doesn’t provide a

master mode.

Side lighting

The slave ﬂash mode is interesting in order to

obtain especially varied directed lighting. Com-

pletely without a cable (wireless), this method

can be used to place and trigger an external

ﬂash at any place in the room. In this way, inter-

esting additional lighting can be set, whether in

the form of a light accent or a side light, for

example. Naturally, multiple slaves can be used

at the same time. It is particularly exciting to use

this to obtain separate lighting for the subject

and the background of the picture.

solution for you! Let the curtain rise

for the Metz mecablitz 28 CS-2

digital, with technology and a size

that have been optimally matched to

compact digital cameras. The fun

factor comes from the self-learning

slave mode and the clever EASY

mode. For the ﬁrst time, ﬂash results

can be affected directly by means of

the immediate correct buttons (+/-).

This means you only have to take the

shot – check the results on the cam-

era’s monitor – and readjust using the

buttons if necessary. With this slave

model, you increase the ﬂash power

absolutely without any undesired side

effects. This is because it draws its

energy either from alkaline micro

batteries, which are available every-

where, or from equally economical

rechargeable Micro batteries.

Flash with a fun factor:

Have you ever been upset due to

photographs that are too dark,

because the integrated ﬂash in your

camera was once again inadequate?

TECHNICAL GLOSSARY

Flash readiness indication

The ﬂash readiness indication

illuminates when there is enough

energy in the ﬂash capacitor of the ﬂash unit.

Guide number (GN)

The guide number is the code

number for the light output of a

ﬂash unit. It is dependent on the set light sen-

sitivity ISO and (for zoom reﬂectors) on the

reﬂector position, as well as on any reﬂector

attachments that may be in use (e.g. wide-

angle or telephoto lens cover). For high speed

synchronization (HSS), the guide number is

dependent on the shutter speed as well.

HSS – high speed synchronization

In high speed synchronization

(HSS), you can ﬂash with expo-

sure times that are shorter than the ﬂash

sync time of the camera. As a result, ﬂash

photos with wide aperture openings are

possible for high ambient light levels, for

example to limit the depth of ﬁeld in portrait

shots.

i-TTL

Modern further development of

the TTL ﬂash control with measure-

ment pre-ﬂash technique for Nikon and

Fujiﬁlm cameras.

i-TTL-BL

For the i-TTL BL ﬂash control, ad-

ditional data such as the dis-

tance to the subject, for example, is taken

into consideration in the ﬂash exposure.

Key function

Locking of the operating ele-

ments. Protects against uninten-

tional changes.

LCD / LED display

Provides information on the flash

modes and settings being used.

(>>> Dot matrix display)

ADI

Modern further development of

the TTL ﬂash control for Sony

Alpha and Konica-Minolta cameras in

which, for example, the data for distance

to the subject must be put into the ﬂash

exposure in addition.

AF measurement flash

An autofocus auxiliary light

(AF measurement ﬂash) integrated

in the ﬂash unit automatically supports

the central autofocus sensor of the camera

in the event of low ambient light. For a

multi-zone AF measurement ﬂash, the

decentralized AF sensors are supported in

the process.

Automatic unit switch-off

During extended breaks from

photographing, the flash unit

is switched automatically to an energy-

saving standby state to prevent the power

source from discharging (Auto-Off).

Through the wake-up function, the flash

unit is reactivated, for example when the

shutter release is actuated.

Automatic flash mode

A photo sensor integrated in the

flash unit measures the subject

during photographing, and automatically

terminates the light output as soon as the

subject is correctly exposed.

Buzzer

Additional acoustic status mes-

sages can be activated for flash

readiness, flash exposure control as well

as warning tones.

Correct exposure indication

The correct exposure indication

OK is shown on the ﬂash unit after

the photograph if the subject in automatic or

TTL ﬂash mode was correctly exposed.

D-TTL

Modern further development

of the TTL flash control with

measurement pre-flash technique for Nikon

and Fujifilm cameras.

3D and D-TTL-3D

For the 3D-TTL (Nikon) and

D-TTL-3D ﬂash control, additional

data such as the distance to the subject,

for example, is taken into consideration in

the flash exposure.

Dot matrix display with soft keys

Individual adaptation of the

display on the camera system

and the operating state for optimum and

self-explanatory operation of the flash unit

via soft keys.

E-TTL

Modern further development

of the TTL flash control with

measurement pre-flash technique for

Canon EOS and PowerShot cameras.

E-TTL II

For E-TTL-II, additional data is

taken into consideration during

flash exposure such as the distance to the

subject and the guide number of the flash

unit, for example.

Extended zoom

With Motor Zoom mode, the main

reﬂector illuminates the subject

more than necessary by one reﬂector position.

As a result, the additional dispersed light

provides softer illumination of the subject.

Flash bracketing

Flash bracketing series with

three photos of different ﬂash ex-

posure: minus correction value, no correc-

tion value, and plus correction value.

Manual flash mode

Flash mode with unregulated

light output. The ﬂash unit delivers

the full light output, if no partial light output

is set.

Manual zoom

The zoom position of the

main reflector and thus the illu-

mination of the flash unit can be adjusted

manually to the lens focal length.

Modeling light

Modeling light is a stroboscope

light with a high ﬂash frequency

lasting a few seconds. With this “quasi per-

manent light”, the light dispersion and

shadow formation at the subject can be

checked before taking the photograph.

Motor zoom

The zoom position of the main

reflector and hence the illumina-

tion of the flash unit can be adjusted auto-

matically to the lens focal length.

Partial light mode

Manual ﬂash mode with unregu-

lated light output. By setting par-

tial light mode on the ﬂash unit, the light

output or illumination duration of the ﬂash

unit can be adapted speciﬁcally to the pho-

tographic situation.

P-TTL

Modern further development

of the TTL flash control with

measurement pre-flash technique for

Pentax and Samsung cameras.

REAR

Synchronisation to the 2nd shutter

curtain for more natural blurring

effects for longer exposure times.

Remote operation

A remote system consists of a

master or controller ﬂash unit on

the camera and one or more slave ﬂash

units. The slave ﬂash unit is remotely con-

trolled wirelessly by the master or controller

ﬂash unit. With a master ﬂash unit, the ﬂash

light contributes to the exposure, in contrast

to a controller ﬂash unit.

SCA 3002 adapter system

For system cameras with digital

or analog data transmission be-

tween the camera and flash unit. By using

an SCA adapter from the SCA 3002 sys-

tem, there are numerous additional system

flash functions available with flash units

from the SCA 3002 system, depending on

the type of camera. The firmware of an

SCA adapter from the SCA 3002 system

is updateable via Metz service for future

cameras.

SCA 300 adapter system

For system cameras for adapta-

tion to flash units of the SCA

3002 or SCA 300 system. Depending on

the type of camera, not all system flash

functions are supported by the SCA 300

system.

Secondary reflector

To brighten shadows cast in the

close-up ranges which appear

when using an indirect flash.

Slave mode

An integrated sensor makes this

wireless slave flash mode pos-

sible in combination with a master or con-

troller flash unit. (>>> Remote operation)

Stroboscope mode

Manual ﬂash mode for ﬂash

sequences with a selectable

intensity, frequency, and number of ﬂashes,

e.g. for special effect photos and motion

studies.

Swivel reflector

Can be tilted horizontally and

vertically for indirect flash.

Can be tilted vertically for indi-

rect flash.

TTL flash control

While taking the photograph,

the flash light is measured

through the lens (TTL = through the lens) by

a sensor in the camera. The light output of

the flash unit is terminated as soon as the

subject is correctly exposed.

TTL fill-in flash control

Reduces too high subject contrast

(e.g. to brighten dark shadowy

areas in bright sunshine).

USB

Interface for firmware updates

via the Internet.

Wake-up

The flash unit can be reactivat-

ed by actuating the shutter re-

lease if the flash is in energy-saving stand-

by mode after an extended break from

taking photographs.

(>>> Automatic unit switch-off)

Wide-angle attachment

Increases the light angle of the

flash unit. Depending on the

type of flash unit, the wide-angle attach-

ment is either integrated or attachable as

an accessory.

Zoom size

Automatic adaptation of the dis-

play of the reflector position of

the flash unit to the picture-taking chips for

digital cameras.
