Bounce Shooting
Bounce shooting refers to a method in which the light from the flash is bounced off the ceiling or
walls.
This allows the light to go all around the subject, resulting in a soft picture without harsh contrast
or shadow.
Shooting without bounce Bounce shooting
Operation
1. While holding the Bounce lock release button, revolve the
light-emitting section in the up-down and left-right direc-
tions.
The light-emitting section can be revolved in the range
shown in the figure on the left.
Down: 7°
(See “Close-up Flash” on page 57.)
If the position of the light-emitting section is locked, press
and hold the Bounce lock release button and then change
the position.
The light control range and optimum shooting distance are not displayed in the control panel.
The color of the surface (ceiling and/or walls) off which the light is bounced will affect the
pictures you take. Whenever possible, bounce the light off a neutral surface.
When the firing angle adjustment is automatic (ZOOM), the ZOOM display on the control
panel shows “- -” and the firing angle is set to 25 mm (50 mm with 135 type).
When the firing angle adjustment is based on manual switching (M ZOOM), the firing angle
can be varied manually (see page 57).
