Automatic power off

The LEICASF 58 can be set so that it switches to standby mode either after

about two or ten minutes

• after being switched on,

• after a flash is fired,

• after the camera’s shutter release button is actuated,

• after the exposure metering system of the camera is switched off,

to save battery power and prevent inadvertent battery drain. When the

AUTO-off function is activated, the symbol appears in the display.

If the flash unit switches to the standby mode, the flash-ready indicator (1.16)

and the displays on the monitor go out. The most recently used settings are

retained after automatic power off and are immediately restored when the

camera is switched on.

The flash unit can be turned on again by pressing any button or by pressing

the camera’s shutter release button (wake-up function).
