13. The zoom reflector
Fig. 25: Settings for Ex-Zoom mode
The flashgun’s larger angle of coverage provides a higher safety margin for
perfect lighting of the subject. In normal operation, the Ex-Zoom mode produces
a softer illumination of the subject because more light is reflected back from the
walls and ceiling.
Setting procedure for the Ex-Zoom mode:
• Switch off the flashgun with the main switch
ቢ
for approx. 5 seconds.
• Hold down the zoom button
ቭ
on the flashgun.
• Switch on the flashgun with the main switch

.
• Release the zoom button

Ex-Zoom mode (extended zoom)
The Ex-Zoom mode can only be used with system cameras that are capable of
exchanging data via the SCA 3000 adapter.
This mode was created for professional use during reporting work in dense
crowds. In the extended zoom mode, the flashgun’s zoom reflector position is
automatically adjusted one increment further towards a wider angle in relation to
the focal length of the camera lens, to guarantee wider coverage.
Example: Focal length of camera lens 50 mm; zoom reflector setting 35 mm
