9.5 Manual partial light output
Manual partial light output can only be set in
manual flash mode M.
Continue depressing the pre-select key of the
flash unit until “P 1/” and the partial light output
value flash on the display. While these data are
flashing use the “+” or “-” key to set the required
partial light output on the flash unit. Partial light
output values of P 1/1 (maximum light output) to
P 1/16 (minimum manual partial light output) can
be set. The setting becomes instantly effective and
is automatically stored after 5 s.
After storage the LC display indicates again the f-stop
instead of the partial light output.

10.1 Flash readiness indication
The flash readiness indicator on the slave flash
unit lights up when the flash capacitor is fully
charged to confirm that the slave is ready for
firing. The slave will not be triggered if a shot is
taken before the flash ready signal is lit.
When flash readiness is established a test flash
can be fired with the “TEST” button. In the auto
flash mode A and the manual flash mode M, this
test flash is based on the adjusted flash parame-
ters. In the Metz-Remote Flash Mode, the test flash
has a low light output level. In the “EASY” mode a
controlled test flash is fired, in conformity with the
settings made.
10.2 Correct exposure confirmation
The “o.k.” correct exposure indicator lights up for
approx. 3 s when the shot was correctly exposed
in the auto flash mode A or EASY mode. When in
auto flash mode A this depends on the set flash
parameters (see Chapter 9), and in the EASY
mode on the selected light control.
This enables you, for example in the automatic
flash mode, to establish a suitable aperture by
manually triggering a test flash.
Fire a test flash with the manual firing button . If
the “o.k.” correct exposure indicator does not light
up then set the next smaller f- number, or reduce
the distance to the subject, and repeat the test flash.
