Some cameras do not support TTL fill-in flash mode in combination with
SPOT exposure metering. This flash mode will then either be automati-
cally cancelled or cannot be activated in the first place. In this case, nor-
mal TTL flash mode, D-TTL or i-TTL modes will be set (see camera’s opera-
ting instructions).

5.4 Automatic flash mode

In the automatic flash mode A, the flash unit sensor measures the light that

reflects back from the subject. The sensor has a coverage of about 25°, and

only measures the light for the time a flash is fired by the mecablitz. The flash is

cut off as soon as sufficient light has been emitted for correct exposure. The sen-

sor of the mecablitz has to be directed at the subject.
The maximum range is shown on the LC display. The shortest shot distance is

approximately 10% of the maximum distance range. The subject should be loca-

ted within the middle third of the distance range shown on the LC display to

allow the electronic system sufficient leeway for compensation.
Setting procedure:

• Press the

button until „Mode“ flashes on the

LC display.

• Set the flash mode

using the

and

arrows. The flash mode selected is then highlighted.

The setting takes effect immediately.

• Press the button

to change the LC display back

to the normal view. If the button

is not pressed,

the display will change back to the normal view after

about 5 seconds.

If the shot was properly lit, the correct exposure indica-

tion ተ will flash „OK“ for about 3 seconds (see 13).
