Bounce Flash
By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will
bounce off the surface before illuminating the subject. This can
soften shadows behind the subject for a more natural-looking shot.
This is called bounce flash.
To set the bounce direction, hold the flash head and turn it to a
satisfying angle.
●
If the wall or ceiling is too far away, the bounced flash might
be too weak and result in underexposure.
●
The wall or ceiling should be a plain, white color for high
reflectance. If the bounce surface is not white, a color cast
may appear in the picture.
Creating a Catchlight
With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the subject’s
eyes to add life to the facial expression.
Point the flash head upward by
1
90°.
Pull out the wide panel. The
2
catchlight panel will come out
at the same time.
Push the wide panel back in.

●
Push in only the wide panel.
●
Follow the same procedures
as for bounce flash.
●
Point the flash head straight ahead and then upward by 90°.
The catchlight will not appear if you swing the flash head left
or right.
●
For best catchlight effect, stay 1.5m/4.9ft away from the
subject.

periphery.

not be adjusted, it will constantly be 24mm.
