Correct Exposure Indication; Displays In The Camera Viewfinder - Metz MECABLITZ 36 AF-3 C Mode D'emploi

Only mecablitz 36 AF-3 M:
When the flash unit is switched on with bright ambient light,
ensure that in the Program P and Programmed Image
Control Modes the shutter speed is not faster than the flash
sync speed. In the event that the camera selects a faster
speed, this can be limited to the flash sync speed by pres-
sing the key for exposure control on the camera. An alter-
native way to overcome the problem is to set the "A", "S" or
"M" mode on the camera.

5.3 Correct exposure indication

The "o.k." correct exposure confirmation briefly lights up on
the mecablitz when the shot was correctly exposed in TTL
flash mode.
If "o.k." is not indicated after an exposure, then this means
that the shot was underexposed. The shot will then have to
be repeated with the next smaller f-number (e.g. f/8 instead
of f/11) or the distance to the subject or the reflecting sur-
face (e.g. when bouncing the flash) must be shortened.
Please refer to the maximum flash range indicated on the
aperture calculator of the mecablitz 36AF-3C/M/N.
Only mecablitz 36 AF-3 M:
Following correct exposure the mecablitz transmits a signal
to the camera with the result that correct exposure is addi-
tionally indicated in the viewfinder of some cameras (see
operating instructions for the given camera).
