cation that the mecablitz cannot fully illuminate
the shot right out to the image corners.
A wide-angle diffuser (optional extra, see
section 9) can be used for lenses as of 20
mm focal length. If a lens is used that does
not transmit any focal length data, the
reflector is automatically positioned at 35
mm and the LC display will not indicate
"Auto Zoom". The position of the reflector
can then be adjusted manually to the focal
length of the lens (see Chapter 7.6.2).
7.6.2 Manual zoom mode „M.Zoom"
The position of the zoom reflector can also be
manually changed, for instance to achieve speci-
fic lighting effects (e.g. hot-spot, etc.). Repeated
depression of the „Zoom" key on the mecablitz
will successively select the following reflector po-
sitions:
28mm - 35mm - 50mm - 70mm - 85mm - 105mm
The mecablitz LC display indicates „M.Zoom" for
manual zoom setting and the current zoom posi-
tion (mm). The setting becomes instantly effective.
The display is switched back to its normal state
after approx. 5 sec.
If manual adjustment of the zoom reflector
results in a setting in which the shot will not
be fully illuminated right out to the image
corners, then the reflector position indicated
on the mecablitz display will start to flash as
a warning.
Example:
• You are using a lens focal length of 50 mm.
• A reflector position of 70mm has been manual-
ly adjusted on the mecablitz („M.Zoom" is dis-
played).
• „70mm" for zoom position will start to flash on
the mecablitz LC display because the shot will
not be fully illuminated right out to the image
corners.
