The shots are too dark.
• The subject is beyond the range of the flash unit. Note: Using bounce flash
reduces the range of the flash unit.
• The subject contains very bright or highly reflective areas. The metering system
of the camera or flash unit is deceived as a result. Set a positive manual flash
exposure correction, e.g., +1 EV.
The shots are too bright.
• In close-up shots, overexposure (shots that are too bright) may result if the shut-
ter speed is faster than the flash sync speed. The minimum distance from the
subject should be at least 10% of the maximum flash range indicated on the
display.
The aperture (f-stop) cannot be adjusted on the flash unit.
• There is an exchange of digital data between the flash unit and camera.
Adjustment of the aperture is not possible!
