INSTRUCTION MANUAL
En
Raising and Rotating the Flash Head
1. The flash head will elevate from -7 to 90 degrees with stops at -7, 0, 45, 60, 75
and 90 degrees. Gently raise or lower the flash head into the required position.
2. The flash head will rotate 180 degrees in either direction with stops at 60, 75,
90, 120, 150 and 180 degrees. Gently rotate the flash head into the required
position.
3. When the flash head is raised or rotated from the 0 degree standard forward
position the flash zoom will set itself to 50mm. "- -" will be displayed on the LCD.
Flash zoom when the head is raised or rotated can be changed in MZoom mode
(see below).
4. At -7 degrees the flash zoom will act the same as 0 degree – it will not change
any settings.
Using the Bounce Card or Wide Angle Diffuser
The Phottix Mitros+ Flash comes equipped with a white bounce card and wide
angle diffuser panel in the flash head.
1. The wide angle diffuser panel will cause the flash to spread light to a 14mm
equivalent.
2. The white bounce card can be used when the flash head is in a raised position
to bounce light forward to assist with catch lights in a subject's eyes.
To use:
1. Gently pull the diffuser panel and bounce card from the flash head using
the ridge on the bottom of the diffuser panel.
2. If using the diffuser panel it will drop into position over the flash head. Gen-
tly push the bounce card back into the flash head if not needed.
3. If using the bounce card only gently push the diffuser panel back into the
flash head.
Using the Flash Head Diffuser
The Phottix Mitros+ TTL Flash comes with an attachable diffuser that can be
added to the front of the flash head when needed. It is good for softening light,
reducing hot spots and shadows and better coverage for macro photography.
To use:
1. Align the diffuser with the flash head, with the "UP" mark on the diffuser
facing up.
2. Snap one side of the diffuser mount into the corresponding flash head
mount.
3. Repeat step 2 on the other side of the diffuser.
