10 Flash techniques

10.1 Bounce flash

Bounce flash illuminates the subject more softly and reduces dense shadows.
It also reduces the drop in light from foreground to background that occurs for
physical reasons.
The main reflector
of the flash unit can be swivelled horizontally and tilted
vertically for bounce flash. To do this, depress the reflector unlocking button
and tilt the reflector
. To avoid colour cast in your shots, the reflective surface
should be colour-neutral or white.
The main reflector is not locked in place in any swivelled positions other
than 0°.
When tilting the main reflector
through an angle that is wide enough to prevent direct light from falling
on the subject. For this reason the reflector should be tilted at least as far
as the 60° lock-in position. Flash ranges do not appear on the display
when the main reflector is turned! When the reflector head is tilted, the
main reflector is moved to a position of 70 mm in order to prevent the
subject from being additionally illuminated by dispersed light.
The range and position of the main reflector is not displayed.
