Foreword

We congratulate you on purchasing this flash unit and thank you for your confidence in Metz products.

It is only natural that you should want to use your flash unit straight away. However, we recommend that you study these Operating Instructions beforehand to be able to fully exploit and utilize all the capabilities offered.

The following operating instructions are conceived such that they describe a camera + flashgun system combi- ned with the standard foot 301 or an SCA 3xx2 adapter.

When using the standard foot 301, all operating steps marked with a dot • and red numbers must be perfor- med on the mecablitz.

If an SCA 3xx2 adapter is used, only the operating steps marked with red numbers must be performed on the mecablitz.

This flash unit is compatible with:

•all cameras that have a hot shoe contact

•All cameras that have an accessory shoe without hot- shoe contact, and use a synch cable (see Optional Extras)

•System cameras

Optimal adaptation to your camera is achieved by using an SCA adapter. The enclosed SCA 3xx2/3xx Table will indicate the adapter you require for your par ticular camera. This table also indicates the special flash functions that can then be performed.
