WIDE PANEL

This flashgun is equipped with a built-in wide panel, which can
provide an ultra-wide 17mm angle of coverage. Slide out the
wide panel and catch light panel and flip it down to cover the
flash's head. (Be careful to slide the panels out smoothly.)
Then put the catch light panel back in its place. P.3-(7)

BOUNCE FLASH

By firing the flash toward the ceiling or a wall, it is possible to
disperse the light and take pictures with soft light and reduced
shadows.
The flash head can be set to the upper side at 90°, the lower
side at 7°, and the right and left sides at 180°. P.3-(8)

Choose a white surface for bouncing the flash, otherwise the

image's colour may be incorrect. Depending on the reflecting
surface, the subject distance and other factors, the effective
distance range for TTL AUTO may change.
CLOSE-UP EXPOSURES
By tilting the flash head down to the 7° position, the lower
section of the frame can be bright enough for close-up
exposures.

CATCH LIGHT PANEL

This flash is equipped with a built-in catch light panel, which
can create a catch light in the eyes of the subject when the
bounce flash mode is activated. Slide out the wide panel and
catch light panel, then put the wide panel back in its place. (Be
careful to slide the panels out smoothly.) P.3-(9)
 To create a catch light effectively, tilt the flash head upward
90 degrees and take pictures at a close distance. P.3-(10)
SYNC.TERMINAL
EF-630 has a synchro terminal that can connect to the camera
by a commercially available flash synchro cable.
When shooting with a synchro cable, use the Flash in
[MANUAL] mode.
With [MENU 2] → [ISO] [F-NUMBER], set the ISO and the
aperture (F) value to match that of the camera. Adjust the flash
power output in the Mode details area until the distance
displayed in the Status area is approximately the same as the
distance between the flash and the subject.
Caution!!
S-TTL auto flash does not work if the Sync.Terminal is used.
The EF-630's Sync.Terminal is compatible with plugs that have
a positive (+) polarity on the central pin and a negative (-)
polarity on the shield. If the plug has reverse polarity, use a
commercially-available polarity conversion cord.
