Bounce Flash

With the AF540FGZ, you can tilt and swivel the flash
head to aim at the ceiling or wall to bounce the flash
before it reaches the subject. Doing so creates softer
light and shadows to make the picture look more
natural. Bouncing the flash will decrease the flash
intensity by the time it reaches the subject. Therefore,
this function is effective when photographing in P-TTL
or TTL mode at short distances.

The bounce angle can be set to the following angles.
Rightward:

0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°

Leftward:

0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 135°

Upward:

0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°

Downward: 0°, -10°
