The zoom reflector can be swivelled upwards into four lock- ing positions (e.g. for bounce flashes):

30°, 45°, 60° and 90°.

For normal flash operation the reflector is in the horizontal position: 0°.

5.6 AF measuring beam

The AF measuring beam is activated by the camera electro- nics when the ambient lighting conditions are insufficient for automatic focusing. The AF beam emitter then projects a striped pattern on to the subject, and the camera uses this pattern to focus automatically.

To enable activation of the AF measuring beam by the camera, the camera lens must be set to AF. On the camera, the AF mode “Single-AF” or “ONE-SHOT-AF” must be selected. Low-speed zoom lenses may signifi- cantly reduce the distance range of the AF measuring beam.
