1. Mounting the SCA adapter

All units involved must be switched off before

mounting or removing the SCA adapter

on/from the flash unit or the flash unit on/from

the camera. Should your camera have a built-

in foldable flash unit make sure that it is com-

pletely folded down during operation with an

external flashgun !

For mounting or removing the SCA adapter on/from

the individual flash units please refer to the detai-

led description in the operating instructions of the

flash unit concerned..

Mounting the flash unit with SCA adapter on

the camera

• Screw the knurled nut of the SCA adapter as far

as possible towards the head of the adapter

case. The locking pin in the adapter shoe is now

fully retracted into the case.

• Slide the adapter into the camera‘s flash shoe.

• Screw the adapter’s knurled nut as far as possi-

ble towards the camera case to clamp the adap-

ter in position. If the camera does not have a

locking hole the spring-loaded locking pin retrac-

ts into the adapter case so that it does not dama-

ge the surface.

Flash units of the SCA 300 system (mecablitz

60 CT-4 or 45 CL-4) additionaly require the

use of an SCA 3000C converter cable! Older

compact flashguns of the SCA 300 system

(not listed in this table) will be compatible

with the SCA 3502 adapter if you use an SCA

3000C converter cable in combination with

the Power Grip G 15, or an SCA 300E adapter

plus a 40-36 flash bracket.

1) Motor zoom control und maximum flash range

indication are automatically completed only

when using lenses with electric contacts.

2) When using lenses without electric contacts,

correct indication of the maximum flash range

is provided on the LC display of the mecablitz

only if aperture and zoom position have been

manually set on the mecablitz.

3. Control panel of the adapter

A hinged cover at the rear of the adapter conceals

a number of switches only intended for use of flas-

hguns of the SCA 3000 system. A recess at the

lower right permits the hinged cover to be easily

opened with a fingernail.

The position of the switches and the indicator 

on the SCA 3502 adapter are only intended for use

of SCA 3000 flash units (mecablitz 32 Z-2, 32 MZ-

3, 40 MZ-..., 50 MZ-5) and flash units of the SCA

300 system (mecablitz 45 CL-4 and 60 CT-4, when

combined with the SCA 3000C converter cable).

Note: The above figure shows the position of the

switches for „normal“ flash operation

(default setting).

Switch : Activation of manual flash exposure

compensation in TTL and auto flash

mode. The function is activated (ON)

when the switch is set to the right -

beside the symbol.

Switch : Manual flash exposure compensation

in whole stop increments (EV).

Switch : Manual flash exposure compensation

Operation with flash units of the SCA 3002

system:

The switch positions on the SCA 3502 adapter are

irrelevant when using a flashgun of the SCA 3002

system (mecablitz 44 MZ-2, 54 MZ-..., 70 MZ-...).

Indicator  is not illuminated!

Any settings that may be necessary for flash expo-

sure compensation are made on the mecablitz its-

elf; the flash exposure correction value is indicated

in the LC display of the mecablitz (see operating

instructions of the given mecablitz)

4. Possible flash modes

4.1 TTL flash control

The required light output of the mecablitz is mea-

sured off the film plane by a sensor inside the

camera and is controlled by the camera electro-

nics. That’s why TTL flash control will work correc-

tly only if a film is loaded in the camera.

The mecablitz 40 MZ-... and 50 MZ-5 also

permit partial light output levels to be used in

TTL flash mode, e.g. when the camera is in

winder mode.

Partial light output levels are limiting the maximum

possible amount of flash light to a manually set

value, e.g. 1/128. They must not be mistaken for

manual flash exposure compensation!

4.2 Auto flash mode

The sensor integrated in the mecablitz controls the

emitted light.

The mecablitz 40 MZ-... and 50 MZ-5 also

permit partial light output levels to be used in

the auto flash mode, e.g. when the camera is

in winder mode.

☞

ķ

700 47 0164.A6-GB,I,E M5 25.01.2007 12:45 Uhr Seite 8

Partial light output levels are limiting the maximum

possible amount of flash light to a manually set

value, e.g. 1/128. They must never be mistaken for

a manual flash exposure compensation!

4.3 Manual flash mode

The mecablitz always emits the same defined amo-

unt of light. Depending on the mecablitz model, full

or partial light output levels can be chosen.

The „winder“ and „motor drive“ modes are

partial light output levels. The „stroboscopic“

mode is a manual flash mode with partial light

output levels.

4.4 Flash mode with guide number

control (GNC)

The amount of flash light emitted in the flash mode

with guide number control (GNC) is also based,

among other things, on the distance setting or the

camera’s automatic distance measuring system.

Consequently, the following must be observed,

depending on the given system:

• The secondary reflector cannot be used.

• The reflector must be set in its normal position.

• The flash mode in the cordless Metz Remote

System is not supported.

Depending on the given flash unit and camera

type, the camera’s shutter will not be released

when the above functions are activated !

mecablitz 40MZ-…, 44MZ-2 and 50MZ-5

Set the flash unit in the TTL or EM flash mode (EM

= Easy-Mode TTL; only possible with 40MZ-1, 1i,

• If you use a mecablitz 45 CL-4 digital or 76 MZ-5

digital, you can employ the second reflector.

• Set the switch on the adapter to "GN".

• Select the "TTL" operating mode on the meca-

blitz 45 CL-4 digital or 76 MZ-5 digital.

5. Dedicated operation of adapter, camera

and flashgun

5.1 Automatic flash synch speed control

The camera automatically switches to flash synch

speed (1/250 s) after flash readiness has been

established. Depending on the camera’s operating

mode, shutter speeds slower than the flash synch

speed are retained.

If the Leica R9 is fitted with a mecablitz

54 MZ-..., there will be no flash synch speed

control in the HSS mode.

5.2 Flash readiness indication

After the mecablitz has been switched on or after a

flash has been fired, flash readiness is signalled by

a continuously lit flash symbol in the camera view-

finder and on the camera’s display (indication on

display only on LEICA R8).

If the mecablitz is switched on but not yet ready for

firing, the flash symbol in the camera viewfinder

and on the camera’s display flashes (indication on

display only on LEICA R8).

The flashgun can only be triggered if flash readin-

ess is established. If the mecablitz is switched on

but not ready for firing, the camera will operate in

the mode selected, but no flash will be fired when

the picture is shot.

5.3 Correct exposure confirmation

Correct exposure confirmation is given in the „TTL“

and „A“ flash modes. After a flash shot has been

taken its correct exposure is confirmed in the camera

viewfinder and on the display at the back of the came-

ra (indication on display only on LEICA R8 and R9).

Note for LEICA R8:

Depending on the exposure or camera setting, an

underexposure (Low = LO) or overexposure

(High = HI) warning may be given

The symbols in the LEICA R8 and R9 viewfinder

have the following meaning:

a) Flash symbol is lit:

Flash exposure is correct (ok ). Flash readiness is

retained.

No overexposure warning is given in the A

mode of the mecablitz.

b) Flash symbol flashes:

Flash exposure is correct (ok ). Flash readiness is

no longer provided.

In such an instance the camera operates in the day-

light mode until flash readiness is re-established.

No overexposure warning is given in the A

mode of the mecablitz.

c) Flash symbol / HI is lit:

The subject has been overexposed because it may

have been too close for the settings made.

No overexposure warning is given in the A

mode of the mecablitz.

d) Flash symbol / LO is lit:

The subject has been underexposed.

e) Flash symbol flashes / LO is lit:

The subject has been underexposed. Try and shoot

again using a larger aperture opening (smaller f-

number).

(For more details please refer to the LEICA R8

manual)

The symbols in the LEICA M6 TTL, M7 and M8

viewfinder have the following meaning:

a) Flash symbol is permanently lit:

Flash exposure was correct. Flash readiness is

retained.

b)

Flash symbol flashes at a high frequency

(approx. 4 Hz):

Flash exposure was correct but flash readiness is

momentarily not provided.

c) Flash symbol is extinguished:

Underexposure - e.g. as a result of too small an

aperture opening or too wide a flash-to-subject

distance.

(For more details please refer to the operating

instruction from the camera)

5.4 TTL flash control

Set the „TTL“ mode on the mecablitz.

Note for opera

tion with a mecablitz 40 MZ-... and

50 MZ-5:

The mecablitz 40 MZ-... and 50 MZ-5 also permit

partial light output levels to be set in TTL flash

mode. In this manner the maximum permissible

light output of the mecablitz can be limited in TTL

mode, for example when using the camera with a

winder.

The use of partial light output levels must

not be mistaken for flash exposure compen-

sation !

☞

13

ķ

700 47 0164.A6-GB,I,E M5 25.01.2007 12:45 Uhr Seite 13

In the „TTL“ mode, the flash exposure is determi-

ned by way of average metering through a sensor

inside the camera. This sensor measures the light

that reaches the film through the lens and is reflec-

ted off the film plane. When the necessary amount

of light for a correct exposure has been obtained,

the camera electronics sends a signal to the meca-

blitz which causes the flash to be instantly cut off.

The benefit of TTL flash mode is that all factors

which could affect the film exposure are automati-

cally taken into account, such as filters, variable

apertures of zoom lenses, extension tubes for clo-

se-ups, etc.

When making tests in the TTL mode, a section

of film must be loaded in the camera to obtain

correct metering results. A test flash to check

TTL flash operation or the maximum flash

range can only be triggered by the camera,

and not with the manual firing button (test

button) on the mecablitz.

No manual flash exposure corrections are made for

„normal“ TTL flash control.

ķ

700 47 0164.A6-GB,I,E M5 25.01.2007 12:45 Uhr Seite 14

No manual flash exposure compensation is set on

the mecablitz (if necessary, deactivate exposure

compensation; see operating instructions of the

given mecablitz). No correction value is indicated

on the LC display of the mecablitz. Only modes “A”

and “M” are possible when using the the digital

module R with the R9. The “TTL” mode is not sup-

ported by digital module R.

5.5 Flash exposure compensation

(manual flash exposure compensation = override

of flash)

For normal TTL flash control, the flash is used as

the main light source.

There are certain photographic situations where the

flash exposure metering system („TTL“ and „A“) of

the camera or the mecablitz can be deceived. This

may particularly be the case with a dark subject in

front of a bright background (the subject will be

underexposed) or a bright subject in front of a dark

background (the subject will be overexposed).

To overcome this problem in such a photographic

situation, and still achieve a correct exposure in TTL

flash mode, the flash intensity of the mecablitz can

be influenced in the „TTL“ and „A“ (auto) modes.

Another possibility for flash exposure compensati-

on is to use the mecablitz as fill-in light to brighten

up darker sections, instead of a main light source.

On the mecablitz 40 MZ-..., 50 MZ-5, 54 MZ-... , 70

MZ-... and 76 MZ-5 digital, the maximum flash

range indicated in the LC display is adapted to the

selected flash exposure compensation. In the event

of a minus correction, the distance range is longer

because the flash output is reduced (the mecablitz

15

ķ

700 47 0164.A6-GB,I,E M5 25.01.2007 12:45 Uhr Seite 15

is deceived by a pretended faster film speed). In

the reverse case, a plus correction results in the

display of a shorter distance range.

Note for LEICA R8:

Depending on the correction made, a „+“ or „-“

will light up beside the flash symbol in the camera

viewfinder.

mecablitz 32 Z-2, 32 MZ-3, 40 MZ-..., 45 CL-4,

50 MZ-5, 60 CT-4:

The SCA 3502 adapter permits the flash intensity

to be corrected by between -3 1/3 EV and +3 1/3

EV. Flash exposure compensation must always be

activated on the SCA 3502 adapter. To do so, slide

switch  to the right (= flash exposure compen-

sation is ON). Indicator  lights up. You can now

adjust whole EV values between -3 EV to +3 EV

with switch , and one-third increments with

switch .The sum of the two adjusted values pro-

duces the total correction value.

Manual flash exposure compensation is not possi-

ble if TTL fill-in flash control is automatically

activated by the camera (LEICA R8).

Example: A correction value of -2 2/3 EV is to be

set:

mecablitz 54 MZ-..., 70 MZ-...

mecablitz flash units of the SCA 3002 system

(mecablitz 54 MZ-..., 70 MZ-...) permit a manual

flash exposure correction value of between -3 EV

and + 3 EV to be set in 1/3 increments:

• To do so, turn the setting disk on the mecablitz

54 MZ-... or on the control module of the

70 MZ-... until the arrow symbol on the LC dis-

play points at „EV“.

• Then press the setting disk in the direction of the

arrow. While the arrow symbol is flashing, turn

the setting disk to select the desired flash expo-

sure correction value. Now press again the set-

ting disk in the direction of the arrow for storage.

The setting will automatically be stored after 5

seconds if the setting disk is not pressed. „EV“

and the set correction value

1)

are indicated on the

LC display of the mecablitz.

Manual flash exposure correction with the

mecablitz 44 MZ-2

Manual flash exposure correction values can be set

in the TTL and automatic mode A by way of the

menu control on the mecablitz.

Setting a correction value

• Set the TTL flash mode or the automatic flash

mode A on the mecablitz (see above).

• Continue depressing the preselect key on

the mecablitz until EV and the correction value

• While the corresponding displays are flashing,

use the "+" and "-" keys to set the required cor-

rection value between -3.0 EV and + 3.0 EV in

one-third increments.

• The setting becomes immediately effective.

• The display changes after approx. 5 sec.: The

displayed correction value is replaced by the

aperture. EV will flash on the display to indicate

that a correction value has been set.

Cancelling the correction value

• Continue depressing the preselect key on

the mecablitz until EV and the correction value

(instead of the f-stop) flash on the display.

• While the corresponding displays are flashing set

the 0.0 correction value with the "+" and "-"

keys.

• The setting becomes immediately effective.

• The display changes after approx. 5 sec.: The

displayed correction value is replaced by the

aperture. The reference to an EV correction value

is no longer indicated by the LC display.

5.6 Flash bracketing „Fb“

Flash bracketing can be performed with the meca-

blitz 54 MZ-..., 70 MZ-5 and 76 MZ-5 digital in the

TTL and A modes.

A flash bracketing series consists of three succes-

sive flash shots with different flash exposure cor-

rection values. No correction factor is used for the

first exposure.

The second shot is taken with a minus correction

factor, and for the third shot a plus correction factor

is set. The correction factors only affect the flash

light. There is no correction of the ambient light

(background exposure). Flash bracketing is auto-

matically cancelled after the third shot.

Activa

ting flash bracketing on the mecablitz

54 MZ-.. and 70 MZ-5:

• Repeatedly depress the „Select“ button on the

mecablitz 54 MZ-.. or 70 MZ-5 until „Fb“ is indi-

cated on the display. „EV“ and „OFF“ will then

flash on the display.

• Turn the setting disk on the mecablitz to select

the desired EV value for flash bracketing.

• Press the setting disk in the direction of the

arrow for storage. The setting will be automati-

cally stored after 5 seconds if the setting disk is

not pressed. „Fb1“ is now indicated on the

mecablitz display.
