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. For frontal fill-in lighting, the secondary
reflector
can also be activated in the Select Menu (see 7.9).
When tilting the main reflector vertically, make sure that it is turned through
an angle that is wide enough to prevent direct light from falling on the sub-
ject. The reflector should be tilted at least as far as the 60° lock-in position.
For indirect flash operation in Auto Zoom Mode (AZoom; 6.2), the main reflec-
tor is guided to the optimal position. The range and reflector position are not
displayed.

10.2 Bounce flash with a reflector card

The use of bounce flash with the integrated reflector card
lights in the eyes of human subjects.
• Tilt the reflector head upwards by 90°.
• Pull the reflector card
angle diffuser
• Hold the reflector card
diffuser
can bring out high-
together with the wide-
above out from the reflector head
and insert the wide-angle
into the reflector head.

10.3 Bounce flash with secondary reflector

When the main reflector
is swivelled or tilted, the secondary reflector
also be activated in the Select Menu for frontal fill-in lighting of the subject
(see 7.8).
Using the secondary reflector
is generally practical and feasible only for
bounce flash with a swivelled or tilted main reflector
not swivelled or tilted, the secondary reflector will not be activated for the shot.
If too much light is emitted by the second reflector, it can be reduced by 1/2 or
1/4 in the Select menu (see 7.8).
The secondary reflector is not supported by the stroboscopic, modelling
light (ML) and remote flash modes. The secondary reflector does not
flash when the main reflector is in its normal position or is tilted down-
wards.

10.4 Close-ups / macro shots

In close-ups and macro shots, parallax error between the flash unit and lens
may result in shadows on the lower edge of the image. To compensate for this,
the main reflector can be tilted downwards by an angle of -7°. To do this,
depress the reflector release button
If the main reflector is tilted down-
wards, "TILT" is shown on the display
to indicate this. The second reflector is
not supported and does not flash.
Certain minimum lighting distances must be maintained for close-up shots to
avoid overexposure.
The minimum lighting distance is approximately 10% of the maximum
flash range indicated on the LC display. For close-up shots, make sure
that the flash light is not shaded by the lens.
