Metz 44 AF-3M LC display illumination, Motor zoom reflector, Manual zoom mode „M.Zoom

Page 62

Turn on the mecablitz by its main switch.

Release the „Select“ key combination (= „Mode“ key + „Zoom“ key).

The flash range indication changes from m to ft or from ft to m.

5.5 LC display illumination

Keep the „Mode“ or „Zoom“ key depressed for approx. 10 sec. to activate the mecablitz LC display illumination. The LC display illumination is switched off when a flash is triggered.

The settings on the mecablitz are not changed when the above keys are pressed for the first time!

If the shot was correctly exposed in TTL flash mode, then the LC display illu- mination will be activated during „o.k.“ display (see 4.1.3).

5.6 Motor zoom reflector

The reflector of the mecablitz provides full light coverage for lenses of 28 mm focal length and longer (35 mm format).

5.6.1 „Auto-Zoom“

￿If the mecablitz is operated with a camera that transmits the focal length data to the flash unit, then the zoom reflector position will be automatically adapted to the focal length of the lens. When the mecablitz is turned on, the LC display will indicate „Auto Zoom“ and the current reflector position.

Automatic reflector adaptation commences with lenses of 28 mm focal length. If a focal length shorter than 28 mm is used, then the „28“ indicated on the LC display will start to flash as an indication that the mecablitz cannot fully illuminate the shot right out to the image corners.

A wide-angle diffuser (optional extra, see section 7) can be used for lenses as of 20 mm focal length. In cases where the motor zoom reflector of the mecablitz is automatically controlled by the digital cameras Dimage 5, 7, or 7i, the focal length position of the reflector can deviate from the focal length set on the lens. This is because the camera positions the reflector so that the flash coverage is larger than necessary in order to guarantee a complete illumination of the picture

(comparable to the extended zoom mode described in section 5.6.3). In the wide-angle setting of the zoom lens, this will cause the 28 mm indication to flash in the LC display of the mecablitz because its zoom reflector does not have a 24 mm position. Manual focal length setting on the reflector is not necessary.

5.6.2 Manual zoom mode „M.Zoom“

The position of the zoom reflector can also be manually changed, for in- stance to achieve specific lighting effects (e.g. hot-spot, etc.). Repeated de- pression of the „Zoom“ key on the mecablitz will successively select the fol- lowing reflector positions:

28 mm - 35 mm - 50 mm - 70 mm - 85 mm - 105 mm

The mecablitz LC display indicates „M.Zoom“ for manual zoom setting and the current zoom position (mm). The setting becomes instantly effective. The display is switched back to its normal state after approx. 5 sec.

If manual adjustment of the zoom reflector results in a setting in which the shot will not be fully illuminated right out to the image corners, then the reflector position indicated on the mecablitz display will start to flash as a warning.

Example:

You are using a lens focal length of 50 mm.

A reflector position of 70 mm has been manually adjusted on the mecablitz („M.Zoom“ is displayed).

„70 mm“ for zoom position will start to flash on the mecablitz LC display because the shot will not be fully illuminated right out to the image corners.

Returning to „Auto-Zoom“

There are various ways to return to „Auto Zoom“:

Continue pressing the „Zoom“ key on the mecablitz until „Auto Zoom“ appears on the display. The setting becomes instantly effective. The LC display is switched back to its normal state after approx. 5 sec.
