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.

A telephoto attachment (identified with a „T“) is included for telephoto lenses of 85 mm focal length.

PLEASE NOTE: The use of the wide-angle diffu- ser diminishes the effective range of the flash!

Mounting and removing the attachments

The attachment is swivelled into the bayonet mount (see fig. 7). Turn the attachment clockwise and insert the guiding edge into the case gap.

To remove turn the attachment beyond the retaining spring (see fig.) and withdraw the attachment.
