This flashgun is equipped with a built-in wide panel,

which can provide an ultra wide 17mm angle of

coverage. Slide out the wide panel and catch light

panel and flip it down to cover the flash’s head. (Be

careful to slide the panels out smoothly.) Then put the

catch light panel back in its place. The coverage angle

setting of the flash will be set to 17mm automatically.

TTL MODE

TTL mode can provide the correct exposure for the subject and will control the amount of flash.

◆ Please refer to <<CHART

A

>> which shows the combinations of camera and lens types, exposure

mode, and flash modes.

◆ TTL function does not work when using the following cameras: F3 series, FM10, New FM2, FE10,

Nikonos V.

1. Set the desired exposure mode on your camera. Please refer to

Camera’s Instruction manual.

2. Slide the Flash’s power switch to the ON position.

3. Select TTL/BL or TTL by pressing the MODE button.

◆ When using Digital SLR Cameras, please select TTL/BL. Depending

on the camera model, i-TTL or D-TTL system will be used. The ”

d

”

mark will be displayed on the LCD panel for both systems.

◆ For the following cameras; F5, F4 series, F100, F90X/F90/F80

(N90S/N90/N80) series, F70D/N70, F810S/N8008S, F801/ N8008S

and Pronea 600i, TTL/BL or TTL can be selected. However, cameras

other than those listed above, only TTL can be selected.

4. Focus on the subject.

5. Confirm that the subject is located within the effective distance range, indicated on the LCD panel.

17

◆ Depending on the combination of the camera, lens and selected exposure mode, the method for

shooting the subject with flash may be different. Please see chart “

A

” and set the “F”-number by

referring to the manual for your camera.

6. Confirm the Ready Light is on and press the shutter release button.

◆ When the camera does not receive the appropriate exposure for the subject, the TTL/BL or TTL

mark on the LCD panel will appear for 5 seconds after shooting, which shows that the flash power is

not sufficient for this situation. Please re-take at a closer distance or use a wider aperture. In the

case of F5, F100, F90X/F90/F80 (N90S/N90/N80) series and F70D/N70 cameras, the

underexposure indicator appears for 5 seconds. If you want to see the display for underexposure

again, please depress the LIGHT button.

◆ When the flash is fully charged, the ready light in the camera’s viewfinder will appear. If it does not

appear, the shutter of the camera may operate at a slow shutter speed without triggering the flash.

◆ If you use the AF camera with an AF lens, the AF Auxiliary Light will turn on automatically as you

focus on a subject in a dark area. However the AF Auxiliary Light will not light up if central focus

area is not selected.
