7.4 Extended Zoom Mode (Zoom Ext)

In the extended zoom mode, the focal length of the main reflector is reduced to
one level below the focal length of the camera lens. The resulting broader light
coverage provides additional dispersed light (reflections) inside rooms so that a
softer flash illumination is possible.
Example:
The focal length of the camera lens is 50 mm. The extended zoom mode sets a
35 mm reflector position on the flash unit. However, 50 mm continues to be
shown on the display.
• When „Ext ON" is displayed, the extended zoom mode is activated.
• When „Ext OFF" is displayed, the extended zoom mode is deactivated.

equipped with a CPU lens and be able to transfer data on the lens focal
length to the flash unit.
