A flash can often add a professional look to image.
The METZ 54 MZ4i Flashgun is an external flash unit. Flash units are used to add more dynamic lighting to an image, and, if used correctly, make a subject "pop" from the background. Almost all units attach to the camera's hot shoe, which is an electrical contact point on top of the camera. This allows the flash unit to work cooperatively with the camera and fire automatically. Before connecting the flash unit, check your camera's manual to see if it is compatible.
Instructions
1. Slide the flash unit into the camera's hot shoe bracket with the LCD screen facing the rear of the camera.
2. Rotate the locking dial on the flash to firmly attach it to the camera.
3. Turn on the flash unit by pushing the switch to "ON." Then turn on the camera.
4. Press the "Mode" button until an "A" icon appears on the flash LCD. This will set the unit to automatic mode.
5. Press the button on the side of the flash head to rotate the head and aim the flash in the direction your prefer.
6. Press the camera's shutter button fully to take the photo. It will automatically fire the flash.
