Macro Ring Flash 1200 with Macro Flash Controller

Camera Notes
Minolta Program Flash 3600HS(D), Program Flash 5600HS(D), Macro Ring Flash 1200, and
Macro Twin Flash 2400 are compatible with this camera. ADI flash metering (p. 94) will work
with both program flashes attached to the accessory shoe. The use of other flash units is not
recommended.
With the Program Flash units, the flash-metering mode will automatically switch to pre-flash
TTL when the bounce-flash or wireless/remote function is used, or the flashes are connected to
the camera with an off-camera cable. Pre-flash TTL (p. 94) automatically activates when using
the macro flash units.
When using the Program Flashes, if the flash illumination is uneven at the camera's wide-angle
setting, attach the wide-angle adapter to the flash units. With the 3600HS(D), also change the
flash metering mode to pre-flash TTL. When the auto-zoom function is used with the Program
Flashes, the flash's zoom setting will be wider than the lens setting.
When using the Macro Ring Flash 1200 or Macro Twin Flash 2400 in macro mode (p. 47), light
fall off toward the edges of the frame may be noticeable at the wide-angle macro lens position.
