Changing the address setting on the 50 MZ-5 and 70 MZ-5:
• Switch off the slave for at least 5 seconds.
• Switch on the slave.
• Repeat the procedure, steps 1 and 2 to reprogramme the slave to a new
address.
The acknowledgement of flash readiness in the remote control mode is parti-
cularly important. As soon as flash readiness has been reached, the flash-
ready light on the 50 MZ-5 or 70 MZ-5 slave flashes.
Deactivating the Metz TTL remote mode:
• Press the Mode button on the controller and deactivate the controller mode
with the setting disk.
• On the slave:
Switch off the flash unit, remove the SCA 3083 slave adapter, and finally
switch on the flash unit again.

7.2 Metz cordless auto remote mode

The Metz auto remote mode can be used with system, standard, old
k
mechanical and medium-format cameras. The only precondition is
that all cameras feature a synch contact/socket and that the flash unit
is equipped with an SCA 301 standard foot or SCA adapter.
The exposure is controlled by the sensor of the controller flash unit
(master) mounted on the camera.
Setting procedure for the Metz auto remote controller mode:
• Equip the mecablitz with an SCA adapter or the SCA 301 standard foot,
and switch on.
• Switch the camera to manual mode as described in the camera's operating
instructions.
Automatic flash mode or auto remote flash mode are not supported
by all cameras in conjunction with an SCA adapter (see operating
instructions of the camera and the SCA adapter). If a camera, in com-
bination with an SCA adapter, does not support the automatic flash
mode, then equip the mecablitz with the SCA 301 standard foot. In
98
this event do not forget to manually transfer the camera settings (ISO,
f-stop and zoom position) to the mecablitz!
• Set a shutter speed of 1/60th sec. or slower.
• Switch on the mecablitz on the camera with the main switch.
• Depress the Mode button repeatedly until A appears on the display.
• While the A mode is flashing, turn the setting disk and select the address
Ad1 or Ad2 for the Co controller mode. Depress the Mode button in the
event that A no longer flashes. To store, briefly press the setting disk in the
direction of the arrow. The selected setting will be automatically stored after
5 seconds if the setting disk is not pressed. A will then be continuously
displayed (without flashing), together with Co and the slave address Ad1
or Ad2.
Setting procedure for Metz auto remote slave mode:
The setting procedure is the same as for Metz TTL remote slave mode.
The slave flash unit also operates in the TTL mode in the auto remote mode.

7.3 Assessing the overall lighting conditions in remote mode

(not possible with 70 MZ-4)
A modelling light beam of all participating flash units can be fired to assess
the overall lighting conditions in A (auto) and TTL remote mode (see Chapter
12.4).

8. Fill-in flash in daylight

The mecablitz can also be used for fill-in flash in daylight to soften harsh sha-
dows and diminish the contrast, thereby producing a more balanced expo-
sure when shooting against the light (contre-jour). Various possibilities are
open to the user for fill-in flash.

8.1 Fill-in flash in TTL mode

The mecablitz must be equipped with a suitable SCA adapter. The camera
must be able to support TTL fill-in flash.
• Press the Mode button repeatedly until TTL appears on the display.
