3. Automatic Flash Mode
To achieve the shortest possible depth-of-field (as required in portraiture) we recommend an
aperture of f/2.8. For group shots where there can be several rows of people behind each
other, we recommend an aperture of f/8.
• Wait for flash readiness - the green LED lights up.
The subject should be within the middle third of the distance range. This gives the
electronic control sufficient scope for compensation should this be necessary.
There is a certain measure of overlap between the individual automatic apertures. As a result
of this overlap it is always possible to place the subject within the middle third of the range.
CAUTION with zoom lenses!
Due to their design they can cause a loss of light in the order of up to one f-stop.
Furthermore, the effective aperture can also vary, depending upon the adjusted
focal length. This must be compensated by manually correcting the aperture
setting on the flashgun!
