viramati Posted January 21, 2016 Share #21 Â Posted January 21, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Got mine yesterday and it does seem a very nice little unit and easy to use. I really like it with the clip on diffuser which will work well if you want some soft fill light with portraits. Annoying that it costs so much more than the identical Nissan i40 It doesn't come with a full manual but with the help of Jimmy at Leica Mayfair we managed to track down the online copy https://de.leica-camera.com/Service-Support/Support/Downloads?category=&subcategory=130174&type=&language=68389. Â I had been thinking of trading in my SF 58 for it but I think I will keep it now for the rare times I need extra power and if I want to use a 2 light set-up Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcb Posted January 27, 2016 Share #22  Posted January 27, 2016 I just started to use the flash in auto  mode and then photos are all blue tinged- any thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

viramati Posted January 27, 2016 Share #25 Â Posted January 27, 2016 strange mine seems fine so maybe you have a defective unit. Could we see some samples please Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I wear a neck strap and walk, the camera naturally swings from side to side which causes the dial to change settings.  Am 10.1.2016 um 01:59 schrieb Martin Fagerås: Yep, seems pretty loose, i was surprised as well since the mode dial is firm and nice. You are both right… the mode dial is fine and the ttl/manual dial is too loose and i am wondering if some day i will loose it. As this thread is pretty old, i want to ask you both if you already had an incident with the dial (e.g. fallen off) or it is still okay.?
