Some cameras do not support TTL fill-in flash mode in combination with
SPOT exposure metering. This flash mode will then either be automati-
cally cancelled or cannot be activated in the first place. In this case, nor-
mal TTL flash mode, D-TTL or i-TTL modes will be set (see camera's opera-
ting instructions).

5.4 Automatic flash mode

In the automatic flash mode A, the flash unit sensor measures the light that
reflects back from the subject. The sensor has a coverage of about 25°, and
only measures the light for the time a flash is fired by the mecablitz. The flash is
cut off as soon as sufficient light has been emitted for correct exposure. The sen-
sor of the mecablitz has to be directed at the subject.
The maximum range is shown on the LC display. The shortest shot distance is
approximately 10% of the maximum distance range. The subject should be loca-
ted within the middle third of the distance range shown on the LC display to
allow the electronic system sufficient leeway for compensation.
Setting procedure:
• Press the Mode button until „Mode" flashes on the
LC display.
A
• Set the flash mode using the
arrows. The flash mode selected is then highlighted.
The setting takes effect immediately.
• Press the button to change the LC display back
to the normal view. If the button
the display will change back to the normal view after
about 5 seconds.
If the shot was properly lit, the correct exposure indica-
tion will flash „OK" for about 3 seconds (see 13).
