1. Safety instructions • NEVER fire a flash in the immediate vicinity of the eyes! Flash fired directly in front of the eyes of a person or animal can damage the retina and lead to severe visual disorders - even blindness! • Spent batteries should be immediately remo- ved.
4 2. Preparing the mecablitz for use 2.1 Power supply The flashgun can only be operated with 2 CR2-type lithi- um batteries. This type of battery can be stored for many years with practically no loss of energy, thus making it ideal for occasional amateur flash photography.
2. Preparing the mecablitz for use 5 When loading the batteries ensure correct pola- rity. Incorrectly loaded batteries can destroy the flashgun! All batteries must be of the same make and have the same charge level.
6 3. Setting the mecablitz into operation 3.1 Preconditions The mecablitz must only be used with TTL flash controlled cameras! The sensor of TTL flash controlled cameras measures the light reaching the film through the camera lens and instantly cuts out the flash when the film has been correctly expo- sed.
4. Flashgun instructions to the camera The mecablitz transmits different signals and messages to the camera when it is connected to the camera and is switched on. 4.1 Flash-ready indication The green light on the mecablitz illuminates when the flash capacitor is fully primed, thereby indicating flash readiness.
4. Flashgun instructions to the camera 8 Fig. 4: Exposure o.k. Permanently 2) The flashgun is primed and illuminated ready for firing or blinks slowly 1) Permanently The flashgun is primed and illu.
5. TTL flash control The mecablitz receives its information exclusively from the connected TTL-controlled camera. Exposure measurement in TTL mode (TTL = t hrough- t he- l ens) is completed by the camera’s sensor. This sensor measures the light reaching the film through the camera lens.
6. Flash synchronisation Different modes of flash synchronisation are pos- sible, depending on the camera model. Please refer to the camera’s operating instructions to find out how the individual modes of synchronisation are set on the camera.
6. Flash synchronisation 6.3 Second curtain synchronisation (REAR) Some cameras offer the facility of second shutter curtain synchronisation. With normal synchronisation, the flash is fired pre- cisely after the opening of the first shutter curtain.
7. Flash in the individual camera modes Auto program mode with flash (P-function) In this mode, the camera automatically activates the flash function when the ambient light level is too low, it automatically adjusts the aperture and shutter speed, and triggers the flash when the shutter release is pressed.
8. Autofocus measuring flash The integrated AF red-light beam of the mecablitz supports the automatic focusing of autofocus TTL cameras. When the prevailing light is insufficient for automatic focusi.
14 9. Flash techniques and flash functions 9.1 Fill-in flash Normally, the automatic flash function (P-function) will automatically fire the flash in daylight when shooting against the light. However, the camera may well measure sufficient ambient light so that the flash firing circuit is not activated (see page 32).
15 10. Lighting and attachments Your mecablitz provides full and even illumination of normal 24 x 36 mm negatives when using len- ses of 35 mm focal length and longer. A wide-angle diffuser is supplied with the flash- gun to increase the coverage if you wish to use a 28 mm wide-angle lens.
16 11. Care and maintenance - T roubleshooting Remove grime and dust with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use cleaning agents as these could damage the plastic parts. Forming the flash capacitor The flash capacitor incorporated in the flashgun undergoes a physical change when the flashgun is not switched on for prolonged periods.
