Spare Parts - Leica SF 40 Mode D'emploi

EN The reflector's zoom position is not automatically adapted
to the lens's current zoom position
– The camera is not transferring any data to the flash unit.
– There is no data exchange between the flash unit and camera.
→ Tap the camera shutter release button
– The camera is fitted with a lens without a data transfer interface.
– The reflector head has been pivoted out of its normal position.
– The wide-angle diffusion screen is folded in front of the reflector,
or the slip-on diffusion attachment is being used.
The system does not switch automatically to the flash
synchronization speed
– The camera or the lens used has central shutter (most compact
cameras).
→ Switching to synchronization speed is not necessary.
– The flash unit works with high-speed synchronization (HSS). The
system does not therefore switch to the synchronization speed.
– The camera works with shutter speeds that are slower than the
flash synchronization speed.
Depending on the exposure mode of the camera, it does not
switch to the flash synchronization speed (s. camera instruc-
tions).

The shots are too dark
– The main subject is outside the range of the flash unit. Note: The
range of the flash unit is reduced with indirect flash.
– The subject contains very bright or reflective picture sections.
This means that the camera's measuring system is deceived.
→ Use flash mode and set a positive
TTL
flash exposure compensation, e.g. +1 EV
The shots are too bright
– The distance to the main subject is too short, or there is
above-average brightness/strong reflection.
→ Use flash mode and set a negative
TTL
flash exposure compensation, e.g. -1 EV
Or use the integrated reflector card /the slip-on diffusion
attachment supplied.
