Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Photogenic Professional Lighting PLR500DR. Le manque du manuel d’utilisation ou les informations incorrectes fournies au consommateur sont à la base d'une plainte pour non-conformité du dispositif avec le contrat.

Le manuel d’utilisation contient un certain nombre de lignes directrices concernant les fonctionnalités spécifiques, la sécurité, les méthodes d'entretien (même les moyens qui doivent être utilisés), les défauts possibles Photogenic Professional Lighting PLR500DR et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Photogenic Professional Lighting en l'absence de l'efficacité des solutions proposées. Actuellement, les manuels d’utilisation sous la forme d'animations intéressantes et de vidéos pédagogiques qui sont meilleurs que la brochure, sont très populaires. Ce type de manuel permet à l'utilisateur de voir toute la vidéo d'instruction sans sauter les spécifications et les descriptions techniques compliquées Photogenic Professional Lighting PLR500DR, comme c’est le cas pour la version papier.

Pourquoi lire le manuel d’utilisation?

Tout d'abord, il contient la réponse sur la structure, les possibilités du dispositif Photogenic Professional Lighting PLR500DR, l'utilisation de divers accessoires et une gamme d'informations pour profiter pleinement de toutes les fonctionnalités et commodités.

    3 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Despite the measures that have been taken to make electronic flash equipment safe, it must be recognized that high voltages and high temperatures do exist within the power supply / lighting unit. Certain precautions must be observed in handling the unit. Contact with internal high voltage may result in severe injury or death. 1[...]

    4 The unit is shipped with the modeling lamp and flashtube not installed. While installing the modeling lamp and flashtube (with glove or clean cloth to protect the hand and tube) be sure they are properly inserted and tight to avoid arcing and failure of the socket contacts during operation. Do not touch the glass tubes with bare hands, as normal [...]

    7 The Solair Radio-Sync, Constant-Color PLR500DR & PLRX500DR models are fully charged when the READY lamp is on. Lowest power (3.9ws) charge time is a maximum of .5 seconds and at full power charge (500 ws) time is a maximum of 1.5 seconds. The unit may be flashed before fully charged. When adjusting flash power settings downward the units will[...]

    8 After the trigger cord is properly connected, check the synchronization with a film camera. Adjust the lighting unit to same height as the camera lens and face the lights into the lens. The lens aperture should be open to its fullest extent and set on “X” or “zero” delay. Remove the camera back. It is best to perform this test with the mo[...]

    9 Photocell/Photo Slave: The sensor is built-in and can be shut off by plugging in the sync cord. Flash Power Bracketing: Bracketing refers to taking up to three (3) exposures in a sequence with different flash intensities, either additional watt seconds or fewer watt seconds, from the displayed or selected “primary” base intensity. The Solair [...]

    10 Color Temperature Consistent and Constant The problem: With the rare exception of units costing many thousands of dollars, flash lighting packs, up to now, do not control the color temperature of the light. The color temperature typically decreases by over 100 degrees Kelvin for every f-stop of power reduction. Over a 6-stop adjustment range, th[...]

    11 power point is commonly used in engineering and serves the purpose of reporting the bandwidth of the flash duration, but the graph below clearly shows that a power point measurement does not truly report the total flash duration. The clock doesn’t start running until the flash discharge reaches 50% of its peak, and stops when it falls below 50[...]

    12 Reciprocity Explained -Excerpts taken from Kodak TECHNICAL PUBLICATION DATA I FILM E31- July 2002 The reciprocity law states that the intensity of light falling on a photographic film multiplied by the exposure time equals the total amount of exposure. Intensity x Time = Exposure This means, for example, that an exposure of f 16 at 1/60 second i[...]

    13 LONG-EXPOSURE EFFECTS Under low-light conditions, you may have to extend your exposure times to a point of significant speed loss. With black-and-white films, the effect of this speed loss is partially offset by wide exposure latitude. Most color films require more than the normally calculated exposure when the lighting is unusually low. Also, t[...]
