4 LED displays on the flash unit

4.1 Flash readiness indication

When the flash capacitor is charged, the flash readi-
ness symbol
ting that the flash is ready to fire. This means that flash
light can be used for the next shot. Flash readiness is
also transmitted to the camera and indicated accor-
dingly in the camera's viewfinder (see 6).
If a shot is taken before the flash readiness indicator appears in the camera's
viewfinder, then the flash unit will not be triggered and, if the camera has alrea-
dy switched to flash sync speed (see 11.1), the shot may have the wrong expo-
sure.

4.2 Correct exposure indication

The correct exposure indication „OK" only lights up
for about 5 seconds if the shot was correctly exposed
in TTL flash mode (
If no „OK" exposure indication appears after the shot,
then the shot was underexposed. You will need to
repeat the shot with the next smaller f-number (for
example, f/8 instead of f/11) or the distance to the
subject or reflecting surface (for example, with bounce flash) will have to be
reduced. Note the maximum flash range indicated on the display of the flash
unit (see 5.2).

5 Information in Display

The Canon cameras transmit the settings for ISO, lens focal length (mm) and
aperture to the flash unit. It calculates the maximum flash range from the set-
tings and their guide number. Flash mode, range, aperture and zoom position
of the main reflector are displayed in the display of the flash unit.
If the flash unit is operated without having received data from the camera, only
the flash mode selected, the zoom position of the main reflector and „Zoom" is
displayed. The displays for aperture and range only occur once the flash unit
has received the data required from the camera.
Zoom, aperture and flash range are only displayed on cameras where
the aperture and ISO values are transmitted to the flash unit!
Display illumination
Every time a button on the flash unit is pressed, the flash display illumination is
activated for 10 seconds. When a flash is fired via the camera or the hand
release
on the flash unit, the display illumination is switched off.

5.2 Range display

The flash range is displayed when using cameras that transmit ISO, lens focal
length and aperture data. For this a data exchange must have occurred bet-
ween the camera and flash unit, for example by tapping the shutter release.
The range can be displayed either in metres (m) or feet (ft) - see 9.7.
The flash range is not displayed when no data is transmitted from the
camera.
