11.5 Zoom Mode

11.5.1 Extended Zoom Mode

In extended zoom mode the zoom position of
the reflector is reduced to one level below
the focal length of the camera lens. The
resulting expanded and broader light covera-
ge provides additional dispersed light (reflec-
tions) inside rooms so that a softer flash illu-
mination is possible.
Example:
The focal length of the camera lens is 50 mm.
The extended zoom mode sets a 35 mm
reflector position on the flash unit. However,
50 mm continues to be shown on the display.

Depending on the system, the extended
zoom mode is supported for lens focal
lengths of 28 mm or more (35-mm format).
The camera must be equipped with a CPU
lens and be able to transfer data on the lens
focal length to the flash unit.

11.5.2 SPOT zoom mode

In spot zoom mode, the zoom position of the
reflector is increased by one level compared
to the focal length of the camera lens. The
resulting reduced illumination provides
centre-weighted illumination or alternatively
shadowy edge lighting.
Example:
The focal length of the camera lens is 50 mm.
The spot zoom mode sets a 70 mm reflector
position on the flash unit. However, 50 mm
continues to be shown on the display.
