4 Optimising your surroundings

4.1 Onboard flash

The DMP comes with an onboard flash unit
mounted above the lens. The onboard flash
is set as the default option but can be
adjusted by either using the flash adjust
buttons (1h) or via the main menu (see
below).
Step through the following procedure to
ensure the DMP lighting mode applicable to
your studio set-up has been selected.
a Enter the DMP main menu by pressing the
menu on/off button (1e). You will see the
main menu displayed on screen.
b Use the down arrow button (1f) to high-
light the Toolbox icon (5e). Press OK (1g)
to proceed to the next step.
c The flash icon (5r) is the first one displayed
in the column. It indicates the current sta-
tus of the flash set up on the DMP. Press
OK (1g) to select the flash options.
d In the flash set up menu, use the arrow
buttons (1f) to highlight the required icon
and press the OK button (1g) . The manual
flash icon (5x) allows the user to adjust the
on-DMP flash output. The flash slave icon
(5y) sets the flash to emit just enough light
to trigger studio lighting, but not sufficient
to illuminate the subject. The X-sync icon
(5z) disables the onboard flash so that the
DMP can be used with full studio lighting
via an x-sync cable.
e Press the menu button (1e) to exit the
menu.
When the unit is switched off the DMP
automatically stores all the chosen set-
tings.
Note: The system can be used with studio
lighting or the on-board flash. For use with
the on board flash the recommended dis-
tance from subject to lens 1.2m (47
inches).
