„FEE" error display
On some camera models and/or some
camera modes (for example, program „P",
vari-programs, automatic aperture S), it is
necessary to set the aperture ring of the lens
to the maximum f-number. Otherwise the
error message „FEE" will appear on the flash
unit or camera and the camera shutter
release will be blocked!
Some camera models do not support the
manual flash mode M in the camera mode
program P and the vari- or subject programs.
If the flash mode M is selected in these
M camera modes, „FEE" appears in the display
as a warning and the camera release is locked.
If this occurs, check the settings on the
camera and/or the lens settings (see the
camera's operating instructions).
Underexposure warning „EV"
In certain modes ("P" and "A", for example)
some cameras respond to an underexposed
flash shot with a warning on the display of
the flash unit, indicating the amount of
underexposure in f-stops (see the camera's
operating instructions).
If the correct exposure indication does not
light up on the flash unit after a flash shot is
taken, or if the flash symbol blinks in the
camera viewfinder, then the display of the
flash unit will briefly indicate the underexpo-
sure in f-stops ranging from -0.3 EV to -3.0 EV
in one-third increments. In borderline instan-
ces the flash unit will not display an "OK", or
the flash symbol will blink in the camera
viewfinder, even though the exposure is cor-
rect. In this instance, no indication will
appear!
To enable underexposure warnings, the TTL
mode must be set on the flash unit!
