Flash pictures with the RETI NA
automatic III
Slide your flash gun, the KODAB LlTZ, for instance, into
the accessory shoe of your camero, plug the flash coble
into the flash socket (s), and set the required distance.
For flash shots with flashbulbs turn the shutter speed
ring (0) to ' ho second. In conjunction with electronic flash
any shutter speed from 'h o up to ' / 500 sec. may be used.
Your RETINA automatic III always operates in the X
sy
nchronizer position. The lens opening is dependent en
the guide number of the flash bulb or electron ic flash
unit used and also upon the distance. The guide number
is specified on the packages of the flash bulbs and in the
operating instructions of electronic flash units. Th e follo-
wing rule applies:
guide number divided by distance = lens opening.
If, for instance, your guide number is 96 and your distance
12 ft., 96 divided by 12 is 8. This means that you have
to turn the lens opening ring (c) until the figure 8 on the
lens opening ring is opposite the setting mark . The
automatic control is now disengaged and you are ready
to shoot.
