6 Flash parameters (Parameter menu)
For the flash unit to operate correctly, various flash parameters such as the zoom
position of the main reflector, aperture, ISO light sensitivity, etc. have to be adju-
sted to match the camera.
For this automatic data transfer to occur, the flash unit has to be mounted on the
camera, and both devices have to be switched on. In addition, a data exchange
between the camera and flash unit has to be initiated, for which you simply brie-
fly press the shutter release. The maximum range as per the current flash parame-
ters is shown on the display.
6.1 Setting procedure for the flash parameters
When a button is pressed for the first time, the LC display is illuminated.
Depending on the flash mode set, various flash parameters are shown in the
menu: For cameras with digital data transfer, the flash parameters for aperture
(F), lens focal length (Zoom), and light sensitivity (ISO) are automatically set on
the flash unit. The flash parameters for aperture (F) and light sensitivity (ISO)
cannot be changed.
If the camera does not transfer one or more flash parameters to the flash
unit, you will have to adjust these settings by hand.
Press the button (Parameters) until the desired flash parameter (see below)
appears on the LC display.
