2.1 Attaching the flashgun to a camera
The macablitz must always be connected to the X contact on the camera or the synchronizati-
on selector must be set to X.
Always switch off the camera and the flashgun before mounting or removing the
flashgun.
Mounting the flashgun:
Fasten the camera bracket with the bracket screw to the camera’s tripod bush. For medium-
and large-format cameras we recommend the use of the 202/4 bracket (optional accessory).
Insert the camera bracket into the rapid-action catch of the holder block until it is audibly
engaged (fig. 1b).
Secure the camera bracket with the locking screw.
Connect the synch cable to the flashgun and camera.
