inwards by 10°, at the second posi-
tion by 20°.
The working distance is the distance
between the object and the front
edge of the flash unit.
As a guideline, we recommend :
• Working distance of approx.
2-10cm: Swivel reflectors by 20°
and set the bounce diffuser (see 9.1)
in front of reflectors.
At distances over 10 cm, the reflectors
can be swivelled to a greater or lesser
extent to achieve a centre weighted
average or a balanced illumination.
9.1 Bounce diffuser
The bounce diffuser ቯ is required for
illuminating the objects in close proxi-
mity at distances less than 10 cm.
Installation of bounce dif
fuser
Position the bounce diffuser ቯ asym-
metrically over the flash unit so that
the reflectors ቮ and the AF auxiliary
light ቪ are covered.
Press the bounce diffuser ቯ against
the housing of the flash unit until it
audibly snaps into place.
Turn the bounce diffuser ቯ so that
the notch of the marking tab ተ aligns
with the marking point on the flash
unit housing.
Removal of bounce dif
fuser
Gently bend up one of the tabs ቱ on
the bounce diffuser ቯ and release it.
Take off the bounce diffuser.
Do not lift and remove the bounce
diffuser at the marking tab ተ .
10 The AF auxiliary light
The flash unit is equipped with an AF
auxiliary light ቪ which illuminates the
object in dark conditions so that the
camera can focus clearly on the
object or it can be used as illumina-
tion for manual focusing.
The AF auxiliary light is switched on
with button ቤ and lights up for
around 10 seconds. If a picture is
taken, the AF auxiliary light switches
off immediately and thus does not
contribute to the lighting.
