ZOOM: Setting the Flash Coverage

•
If the wall or ceiling is too far away, the bounced flash might be too
weak and result in underexposure.
The wall or ceiling should be a plain, white color for high reflectance. If
the bounce surface is not white, a color cast may appear in the picture.
The flash coverage can be set automatically or
manually. It can be set to match the lens focal length
from 28mm to 105mm.
In Manual Zoom mode, press the <ZOOM> button.
If you set the flash coverage manually, make sure it covers the lens focal
length so that the picture will not have a dark periphery.
By pointing the flash head toward a wall or
ceiling, the flash will bounce off the surface
before illuminating the subject. This can
soften shadows behind the subject for a
more natural-looking shot. This is called
bounce flash.
To set the bounce direction, hold the flash
head and turn it to a satisfying angle
• Turn the Select Dial to change the flash
coverage.
If < > is displayed, the flash coverage will be
•
set automatically.
