Learn Function - Metz mecastudio TL-300 Bedienungsanleitung

7.2 Learn function

The "Learn function" enables individual
automatic adjustment of the slave flash unit
to the flash technology of the camera's flash
unit.
In the process, one or more pre-flashes,
e.g. to reduce the "red-eye effect" of the
camera flash unit can be taken into account.
The slave flash unit is then fired to coincide
with the main flash that illuminates the
actual picture.
+
If the camera's own flash device provides for
automatic focussing AF measuring flashes,
then due to the system characteristics no
learn operation is possible.
If possible, use another camera mode or
change to manual focussing.
