FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
The camera determines the necessary flash intensity by firing one
or more pre-flashes before taking the actual picture. The main flash
fires immediately after, i.e. during exposure. All factors influencing
exposure (e.g. filters, aperture settings, distance to the main
subject, reflective ceilings, etc.) are automatically considered.
COMPATIBLE FLASH UNITS
The entire scope of functions described in this instruction manual,
incl. TTL flash metering, is available only for Leica system flash
units like the SF40. Other flash units, which only have a positive
middle contact, can be safely fired via the Leica Q2 Monochrom,
but cannot be controlled via the camera. Correct function cannot
be guaranteed when using any other flash unit.
Important
• The use of incompatible flash units with your LeicaQ2
Monochrom may result in irreparable damage to the camera
and/or the flash unit.
ATTACHING THE FLASH UNIT
▸ Switch off the camera and flash unit
▸ Pull off the accessory shoe cover and store it in a safe place
▸ Slide the foot of the flash unit all the way into the accessory
shoe and use the clamping nut (where available) to secure it
against accidental movement
• Movement inside the accessory shoe can interrupt required
contacts and therefore cause malfunctions.
DETACHING THE FLASH UNIT
▸ Switch off the camera and flash unit
▸ Detaching the flash unit
▸ Replace the accessory shoe cover
Note
• The accessory shoe cover should always be attached when no
accessory is used.
