Display of Flash Effective Range When the AF33UFTZ is used in the TTL Auto mode, the minimum and maximum flash-to-subject distance parameters will be displayed on the LCD panel. Make sure that you are within the flash effective range before taking pictures. • The flash effective range appears on the LCD panel only when used with the Z-series Pentax cameras. • The flash effective range does not appear on the LCD panel of the Z-series cameras when used with the lenses, such as SMC PENTAX-M, which do not have the lens information contacts. • The minimum distance displayed for the flash effective range on the LCD panel is 0.7m and the maximum one 30m. • The flash effective range varies depending on the ISO film speed, lens aperture in use, and/or the zooming position (flash coverage angle). When using a zoom lens, keep in mind the maximum aperture of the zoom lens changes when the lens zooms in and out.
