WIDE-ANGLE DIFFUSER

The integrated wide-angle diff user (
wide-angle lenses with focal lengths as short as 16 mm.
Use
1. Pull the wide-angle diff user out of the refl ector head as far as it
will go 1 and release it.
• It will automatically spring up into position.
2. To remove the wide-angle diff user, fold it downward until it is
horizontal and push it back in all the way.
Notes:
• When the wide-angle diff user is in use, the zoom refl ector is set
to the shortest focal length setting (24 mm), but the LCD panel
will display 16 mm, corresponding to the actual focal length for
which the fl ash is now optimized. The focal length of the lens
you actually use has no infl uence on this. When the wide-angle
diff user is removed and properly pushed back into the refl ector
head, the fl ash unit will return to the previous setting.
• Using the wide-angle diff user and the clip-on softbox (
pages 2/3, 23 and 24) simultaneously is not recommended.

Notes on the range
• When shooting in close proximity to the subject, long lens
models and/or lens hoods can obscure the fl ash, resulting in
shadows in the lower part of your picture.
• Flash photography can also result in overexposure if you are too
close to the subject. In such cases, using the integrated bounce
card (s. S. 23) for an indirect fl ash, or using the clip-on softbox
included in the delivery package can help.
• For information on the maximum fl ash ranges, please refer to
the guide number table (see appendix) to avoid underexposure.
