Note: Manual zoom can also be used to achieve special effects, such as using the 105mm setting with a wide-
angle lens to produce a vignette.
Using the flash with wide-angle lenses: When you have a lens wider than 24mm mounted on your camera,
you can use the built-in diffuser panel to give the flash an angle of coverage equivalent to that of an 18mm lens.
To use the diffuser:
1.
Pull the diffuser and
reflector panels out of their
slot in the flash head.
2.
Push the reflector back in,
and let the diffuser lay flat
against the flash lens.
The diffuser also softens the light, providing an alternative when no surface is available for bouncing the flash
(see Bouncing Your Flash on page 26).
