The sensor
correctly capture the flash light reflected by the
subject in order to trigger the mecablitz as a slave
flash unit. Therefore, never cover the slave adap-
ter's sensor!
The maximum distance between the subject and
the camera or the mecablitz must be such that the
slave adapter's sensor can still receive sufficient
reflected light from the camera-integrated flash to
reliably trigger the mecablitz.
In case of doubt take a series of test shots or
diminish the distance to the subject. Prior to
shooting, make sure that all involved flash
units are ready for firing!
3. Mounting the adapter
The mecablitz must be switched off before
mounting or removing the SCA adapter. Avoid
touching the electrical contacts on the meca-
blitz and SCA adapter!

• Turn the flash unit's foot by 90° (not with

• Press the retention catch against the casing,
