Bounce Flash
With this flash unit, you can tilt and swivel the flash head to aim
at the ceiling or wall to bounce the flash before it reaches the
subject. Doing so creates softer light and shadows to make the
picture look more natural. Bouncing the flash will decrease the
flash intensity by the time it reaches the subject. Therefore, this
function is effective when photographing in P-TTL mode at
short distances. The bounce angle can be set to the following
angles.
* The LED beam turns on when the catchlight is enabled in the
function menu and the bounce flash is used. (Refer to page 37.)
• A click stop is provided for each bounce angle.
• Press and hold the bounce lock release button to tilt the flash
head when you want to change the bounce angle from 0°
(upward/downward).
• When using bounce flash, will be displayed on the LCD
panel.
• The effective flash range will be displayed only when the
bounce angle is set at -10°.
• It is recommended to set the bounce angle at -10° to prevent
uneven exposure when the distance to the subject is within
1 m.
