camera with an off-camera cable. Pre-flash TTL (p. 92) automatically activates when using the
macro flash units.

setting, attach the wide-angle adapter to the flash units.With the 3600HS(D), also change the
flash metering mode to pre-flash TTL. When the auto-zoom function is used with the Program
Flashes, the flash’s zoom setting will be wider than the lens setting.
When using the Macro Ring Flash 1200 or Macro Twin Flash 2400 in macro mode (p.77), light
fall off toward the edges of the frame may be noticeable at the wide-angle macro lens position.
