Settings on the camera<br />
– The strobe flash mode assumes the manual setting of an aperture on the<br />
lens. Consequently, it can only be used with the aperture priority A and<br />
manual exposure modes.<br />
– The sync speed (shutter speed during flash mode) is set automatically depending<br />
on the exposure mode and camera type or it must be manually preset, for this see<br />
the respective camera instr. (see also „Flash synchronization“, p. 52).<br />
– The flash parameters for ISO and lens focal length or reflector position are<br />
set automatically depending on camera type or they must be entered manually<br />
on the flash unit (see “Automatic / manual setting of flash exposure parameters”,<br />
p. 54).<br />
Displays on the monitor of the flash unit/ in the viewfinder of the<br />
camera (see also “Displays on the monitor”, p. 45)<br />
– The range (2.5) on the monitor of the flash unit is indicated according to the<br />
flash parameters transmitted by the camera or manually entered on the flash<br />
unit (see “Automatic / manual setting of flash exposure parameters”, p. 54).<br />
– Flash readiness and the results of a flash exposure are indicated in the viewfinders<br />
of all <strong>Leica</strong> cameras listed excluding the LEICA MP.<br />

Manual partial light output<br />
In the manual and strobe flash modes, the light output of the LEICA <strong>SF</strong> <strong>58</strong> can<br />
be adjusted to the photographic situation by the setting of a manual partial<br />
light output (P). The setting range in the manual flash mode M<br />
ranges from<br />
P 1/1 (maximum light output) to P 1/256 in one-third steps.<br />
Setting the function (see also “Menu navigation / setting the functions”, p. 46)<br />
1. In the exposure parameter menu Set , select the menu item “P” and<br />
2. there the desired value.<br />
Notes on partial light output in combination with strobe mode:<br />
• The maximum partial light output that can be set is automatically adjusted to<br />
the set flash parameters.<br />
• The reduction of the manual partial light output is only possible in full steps!<br />
• Resetting the number of flashes (N) and the flash frequency (f) does not lead<br />
to the partial light output being reset.
