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.
3. Automatic flash mode
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!
