5.11 Cordless Metz Auto Remote Mode

The mecablitz flash units 40 MZ-..., 50 MZ-5, 54 MZ-... and 70 MZ-... permit cordless automatic flash control of several flash units in the Metz Auto Remote Mode.

Light output control of the off-camera mecablitz flash units (slaves) is handled by the mecablitz mounted on the camera which has a built-in sen- sor and functions as the controller in the auto flash mode. Slave flash units additionally require the SCA 3083 digital adapter. The mecablitz 28 CS-2 digital, 34 CS-2 / 34 CS-2 digital or the 50 MZ-5 / 70 MZ-5 flashguns (without controller) can also be operated as slave flash units without an additonal SCA adapter.

Please refer to the operating instructions of your mecablitz for the setting procedure of the Metz Auto Remote Mode.

☞The camera’s shutter speed must not be faster than 1/60th second for the Metz Auto Remote Mode. The red-eye-reduction function is not possible. The Metz TTL Remote Mode is not supported for system-induced reasons.
