Metz 28 C-2 operating instructions Await flash readiness The orange LED lights up

3. Automatic flash mode

To achieve a shallow depth-of-field (for instance for portraiture) we recommend the auto aperture f/2, whereas the auto aperture f/4 (extended depth-of- field) should be adjusted for group shots where many people are behind each other.

• Await flash readiness - The orange LED lights up.

☞The subject should be located within the middle third of this distance range to give the

electronic control sufficient scope for com- pensation should this be necessary.

There is a certain measure of overlap between the individual working apertures. As a result of this overlap it is always possible to place the subject within the middle third of the range.

☞CAUTION with zoom lenses!

Due to their design they can cause a loss of light in the order of up to one f-stop. Further- more, the effective aperture can also vary, depending upon the adjusted focal length. This must be compensated by manually correcting the aperture setting on the flashgun!
