5.5 Zoom reflector

The zoom reflector of the mecablitz has four zoom positions

for optimal light coverage and adaptation of the guide

number to the focal length of the lens.

28 mm Wide-angle illumination for focal lengths

as of 28 mm

35 mm Wide-angle illumination for focal lengths

as of 35 mm

50 mm Normal illumination for focal lengths as of 50 mm

85 mm Telelens illumination for focal lengths as of 85 mm

The zoom reflector can be swivelled upwards into four lock-

ing positions (e.g. for bounce flashes):

30°, 45°, 60° and 90°.

For normal flash operation the reflector is in the horizontal

position: 0°.

5.6 AF measuring beam

The AF measuring beam is activated by the camera electro-

nics when the ambient lighting conditions are insufficient for

automatic focusing. The AF beam emitter then projects a

striped pattern on to the subject, and the camera uses this

pattern to focus automatically.

To enable activation of the AF measuring beam by

the camera, the camera lens must be set to AF. On

the camera, the AF mode “Single-AF” or “ONE-SHOT-

AF” must be selected. Low-speed zoom lenses may

significantly reduce the distance range of the AF mea-

suring beam.

The striped pattern of the AF measuring beam only supports

the camera’s central AF sensor. When using cameras with

several AF metering areas we therefore recommend to acti-

vate the camera’s central AF metering zone.

Some cameras may only activate the AF illuminator inte-

grated in the camera. In such an event, the AF measuring

beam emitter of the mecablitz will not be activated.
