Zoom flash coverage
Auto zoom
This flash unit automatically switches optimum flash coverage (zoom flash
coverage) to cover a range of focal lengths from 24 mm to 105 mm when
photographing (auto zoom). Normally, you do not need to switch the flash
coverage manually.
The auto zoom is working when [A ZOOM] is displayed on the LCD panel. The
zoom is not displayed on the LCD panel when [A ZOOM] is displayed.
• When a lens having a focal length of less than 24 mm is used with auto zoom,
[WIDE] on the LCD panel blinks. Use of the built-in wide panel (page 34) is
recommended in this case to prevent darkening at the periphery of the image.
Auto zoom control optimized for
image sensor size
By using a Sony digital single lens reflex camera, other than the DSLR-A100, with
this flash unit, the flash unit will provide optimal flash coverage according to the
image sensor size (APS-C format/35 mm-format) of the camera.
