5 Dedicated functions and flash mode

5.1 Flash readiness indication

The flash readiness symbol
when the flash capacitor is charged, thereby indicating that
flashes can be fired for the next shot. Flash readiness is trans-
mitted to the camera and displayed in the viewfinder (see
camera manual).
If a picture is shot before flash readiness is signalled in the
camera's viewfinder, then the flash unit will not be triggered
so that the exposure may be incorrect.
If flash readiness is established, a test flash can be trig-
gered with the manual firing button on the mecablitz.
