Modeling Flash/Test Flash
Before taking the picture, firing a modeling flash helps
you to see how shadows are cast on the subject.
Modeling Flash
Slide the setting switch down (yellow dot).
Check that the ready lamp is lit, then press the
modeling button (MODELING). The flash will
discharge continuously for one second.
After firing the modeling flash, slide the setting
switch up (white dot).
To prevent the flash tube from overheating or
deteriorating, do not discharge the modeling
flash more than 10 consecutive times. After the
tenth time, let the flash unit rest for at least 10
minutes.
Test Flash
Check that the ready lamp is lit, then press the test
button (TEST). The test flash will discharge.
