6. Special remarks concerning the cameras
The multitude of camera models and their peculiarities make it impossible to
detail all camera-specific capabilities, settings, displays, etc. For more details
concerning the operation of a flash unit please refer to the corresponding
chapters in the operating instructions for the given camera!
6.1 Special functions that are not supported in flash mode
6.1.1 DEP mode
The DEP mode (automatic depth of field) is not possible when the flash unit is switched
on. When a flash unit is connected, exposure will be as in the programmed auto mode.
6.1.2 Soft focusing (SF)
In the soft focusing function the flash unit is only triggered for the first shot. A
soft focusing effect may therefore not be achieved!
6.1.3 Program shift
A program shift (paired shutter/aperture setting) cannot be carried out in the
programmed auto mode when the flash unit is switched on.
For details please refer to the camera's operating instructions.

caused by the use of accessories from other manufacturers!
Please refer to chapters 4.1.1 and 4.6.4 for the use of reflector attachments.
• 24mm wide-angle diffuser
(Item No. 000044217)
For full illumination in conjunction with lenses of 24 mm and up. The range
is reduced by the factor 1.4 due to the corresponding loss of light.
• Colour filter set 44-32
(Item No. 00004432A))
Consists of 4 colour filters to achieve special lighting effects, plus a clear fil-
ter to hold colour foils in any colour.
• Mecabounce 44-90
(Item No. 000044900)
A diffuser to achieve soft illumination in the simplest possible manner. The
effect is very impressive because the pictures are given a very soft atmos-
phere. Facial colours are rendered more naturally. However, loss of light
halves the maximum flash range.
• Bounce diffuser 54-23
(Item No. 000054236)
The soft directed light diminishes dense shadows.
8. Advice in the event of a fault
Should the LC display indicate meaningless information or should the flash
unit not work properly in the individual modes, then switch off the flash unit
for about 10 seconds by its main switch. Check the camera settings and find
out if the flash unit's foot is correctly mounted in the camera's accessory shoe.
The flash unit must operate properly when it is switched on again. Contact
your local dealer should this not be the case.
