12.4 REAR – Second curtain synchronisation
Second curtain synchronization (REAR) is particularly
advantageous when using slow shutter speeds (slower
than 1/30 s) or when shooting moving objects that have
their own source of light. Second curtain synchronisation
gives a more realistic impression of movement because
the light streaks behind the light source instead of buil-
ding up in front of the source, as is the case when the
flash is synchronised with the 1st shutter curtain.
The REAR function can only be used if the
mecablitz is fitted with an appropriate SCA
adapter and is mounted on a camera that sup-
ports this function. The camera must be swit-
ched on to select and set this function. The
camera's shutter release must be briefly tou-
ched at least once so that the corresponding
data can be exchanged between the camera and
the mecablitz and the attached SCA adapter.
Please refer to the respective operating instructions to
find out whether or not the camera and the SCA adapter
support the REAR function.
On some cameras the REAR function is not possible in
certain operating modes so that it cannot be selected. It
will then be automatically deleted. Please refer to the
respective operating instructions for the given camera
and the SCA adapter!
Switching on the REAR function (Fig. 16)
• Press the Select button repeatedly until „REAR"
appears on the LC display. Adjust „ON" with the setting
disk. Push the setting disk in the direction of the arrow
to store the REAR function. The selected setting will be
automatically stored after 5 seconds if the setting disk
is not pushed.
After the REAR function has been set, the „REAR" sym-
bol for second curtain synchronisation will be indicated
on the LC display of the mecablitz.
Tip:
Mount the camera on a tripod for this mode to avoid
camera shake with slow shutter speeds.
Turn off this function after shooting, otherwise
unwanted slow shutter speed could result in
camera shake with „normal" flash shots in the
P camera mode or in the programmed image
control modes of the camera.
The „REAR" function can be directly set on some came-
ras. In this case, however, the mecablitz will not display
„REAR".
