Only mecablitz 36 AF-3 M:

When the flash unit is switched on with bright ambient light, ensure that in the Program P and Programmed Image Control Modes the shutter speed is not faster than the flash sync speed. In the event that the camera selects a faster speed, this can be limited to the flash sync speed by pressing the key for exposure control on the camera. An alternative way to overcome the problem is to set the “A”, “S” or “M” mode on the camera.

5.3 Correct exposure indication

The “o.k.” correct exposure confirmation briefly lights up on the mecablitz when the shot was correctly exposed in TTL flash mode.

If “o.k.” is not indicated after an exposure, then this means that the shot was underexposed. The shot will then have to be repeated with the next smaller f-number (e.g. f/8 instead of f/11) or the distance to the subject or the reflecting sur- face (e.g. when bouncing the flash) must be shortened.
