5. Manual flash mode
In this mode, the flash unit will emit the full light energy
if partial light output has not been set. The mecablitz
must be fitted with an SCA adapter or the 301 standard
foot. Adaptation to the given photographic situations is
by setting the corresponding aperture on the camera and
by selecting a partial light output level.
The LC display of the mecablitz indicates the flash-to-
subject distance for correct flash exposure. It is therefore
necessary to ensure that the mecablitz is correctly adju-
sted. The aperture and ISO film speed set on the camera
must be identical to the aperture and ISO film speed set-
ting on the mecablitz! The flash reflector's zoom position
must be adapted to the focal length of the lens!
Setting procedure for manual flash mode (Fig. 7):
Setting example:
Flash-to-subject distance: 6 m; zoom 50 mm; film speed
ISO 100/21°
• Adjust the camera as indicated in the operating
instructions.
• Equip the flash unit with the SCA 301 standard foot or
the SCA adapter and mount on the camera.

Switch on the mecablitz with the main switch.

Depress the Mode button repeatedly until M flashes on
the display. Push the setting disk in the direction of the
arrow for storage. The selected operating mode will be
automatically stored after approx. 5 seconds if the set-
ting disk is not pressed. After storage the M icon will
stop flashing and remain permanent.
• The display indicates the light output „P 1/1" (= full
light output) after storage. A full-power flash is fired
when pressing the firing button on the mecablitz or the
camera's shutter release.
Some cameras will not support the mecablitz
with an SCA adapter when it is in manual mode
(see operating instructions for the given camera
and SCA adapter). In this event the mecablitz
should be equipped with the SCA 301 standard
foot (see also operating instructions for the
given camera).
Manual flash mode of the mecablitz with an
SCA 3xx2 adapter:
If the mecablitz is operated with an SCA 3xx2 adapter
and a camera that automatically transmits the para-
meters for ISO film speed, zoom reflector position and
aperture, then no further settings are required. The
