Creating A Catchlight - Insignia NS-DCF200C User Manual

Creating a catchlight

With the catchlight panel, you can create a catchlight in the
subject's eyes to add life to the facial expression.
1 Point the flash head
upward by 90°, then pull
out the wide panel. The
catchlight panel comes
out at the same time. For
the location of both
panels, see Flash body
on page 5.
2 Push the wide panel
back in.
3 Position the flash head as described in Using bounce flash
on page 22.
Important:
• Point the flash head straight ahead, then upward by
90°. The catchlight does not appear if you swing the
flash head left or right.
• For the best catchlight effect, stay about 4.9 ft. (1.5 m)
away from the subject.
Setting flash coverage in manual
zoom mode
You can set the flash coverage automatically or manually.
You can set the flash coverage to match the lens focal
length from 24mm to 105mm.
In addition, you can use the wide panel to expand the flash
coverage for a 14mm wide-angle lens. See Using the wide
panel to extend the flash coverage on page 24.
