Tip:
If you do not necessarily need the full guide
number and maximum flash range of the
flash unit, you can leave the zoom reflector at
the position for the shortest focal length of
the zoom lens.
This will provide full light coverage of the
picture and eliminate the need to continually
adjust it to the focal length of the lens.
Example:
You use a zoom lens with a focal length range
of 35 mm to 105 mm. In this case, you set
the position of the reflector of the flash unit
to 35 mm.
