m Bounce
If you attach the provided bounce adapter to the Speedlite and bounce
the flash light on the ceiling or wall, etc., you can spread the flash light
across a larger area and suppress the shadows of the subject.
Also, if the flash head is turned 90
°
upward to bounce the flash light on
the ceiling, etc., the diffused flash light emitted from the sides of the
bounce adapter falls on the front of the subject (shooting distance
guidance: within approx. 1.5 m/4.9 ft., at ISO 100 with f/2.8), further
suppressing the shadow of the subject. When shooting portraits, the
catchlight effect can also be obtained.
1
Attach the bounce adapter.
Attach the adapter securely to the
flash head until it clicks in place, as
shown.

When removing the adapter, follow
the procedure in reverse order. Raise
the removal tab on the lower side of
the adapter, then remove the adapter
from the flash head.
2
Take the picture.
Take the picture with the flash light
bouncing off the ceiling, walls, or the
like.
