11.3 AF auxiliary light (AF-BEAM)
If the AF metering system of a digital AF reflex came-
ra is unable to focus due to insufficient ambient
lighting, the camera activates the AF auxiliary light
built into the flash unit.
With the "AF-BEAM" function, the AF auxiliary light
can be switched on or off.
Parallax error between the lens and AF auxiliary
light limits the close-up range with the AF auxi-
liary light to approximately 0.7 m to 1 m.
If the automatic AF auxiliary light
is to be activated
by the camera, the "
ONE SHOT
" autofocus mode must
be set on the camera and the flash unit must indicate
flash readiness.
Some camera models support only the camera's
internal AF auxiliary light. In this case, the automa-
tic AF auxiliary light of the flash unit is not activated
(as in the case of compact cameras; see the came-
ra's operating instructions).
Low-speed zoom lenses can significantly curtail the
range of the AF auxiliary light!
Some cameras support the AF auxiliary light in the
flash unit only with the camera's central AF sensor.
