11.2 Zoom Mode

11.2.1 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
coverage provides additional dispersed light
(reflections) inside rooms so that a softer
flash illumination 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.
