O -camera flash with master and slave.
Several flash units can be used
simultaneously to evenly illuminate
shots or achieve e ects. The remote
systems on modern digital cameras
are particularly suited to this. With
most systems a Metz flash unit, like
the mecablitz 64 AF-1 digital, can be
set as the ‘master’. This allows the
corresponding slave flash units –
the number of which is unlimited – to
be activated wirelessly, as well as
controlled using the camera-speci c TTL
flash mode. All flash units with slave
function are suited to slave mode*.

When it comes to portraits, turning or
rotating the reflector head for a bouncing
flash can be highly e ective. Light can be
deflected via a special reflector umbrella
or a flip-out reflector card integrated into
the flash unit itself – to create so
harmonious lighting.
Slave flash mode is perfect for
particularly creative lighting design. This
involves the positioning and use of an
external flash unit wherever required,
and entirely without the need for a cable.
This can create interesting light accents –
or with the use of several slaves the split
lighting of subject and background.

Bouncing flash.
A remote system consists of a master or controller flash unit on the camera and one or more
slave flash units. The slave flash unit is wirelessly remotely controlled by the master or controller
flash unit. Unlike a controller flash unit, with a master flash unit, the flash contributes to the
exposure.
