5, Film speed setting:

‘adapter. Due compensation may be required when

6. Operation

6.1. Ready light:
Flash readiness is established if the ".-" symbol
lights up in the camera's viewfinder. Flashes can
only be fired if flash readiness information is given.

6.2. Auto check:

=f, in the TTL or auto mode, the ready light
blinks after a flash was fired, correct exposure
is obtained.

— However, if the ready light goes out after a flash
was fired, your picture may be under-exposed.
Flash readiness is then no fonger established
and the camera operates in the set mode until
flash readiness is re-achieved.

— Hf, after fring flashes, the flash ready light ("-""
symbol) continues glowing without initial short
blinking, over-exposure may resut.

6.3, TTL flash control:
‘The light emitted by the flash unit is controlled by
the camera's electronic system with the aid of
measurements made by a sensor on the surface of
the film.

6.4. Firing trial flashes,

— Auto mode
In this mode, you can fire trial flashes manually
before shooting the picture in order to find out
if the selected auto aperture is sufficient for
correct exposure. Ifthe auto check signal onthe
flash unit does not blink when a trial flash is
fired, the setting on flash unit and camera must
bbe corrected (select a smaller f-number.

—TTL mode
This mode does not permit pre-exposure con-
firmation by pressing the flashgun's manual
firing button. To check if sufficient light will be
emitted for the aperture selected, an exposure
‘must be taken with the camera. For repeated
‘rial exposures, you can activate the camera's
‘multiple exposure system sothat ustone picture
will be lost.

Another possibility is to set the ffnumber pre-
‘selected on the camera as an auto aperture

prior to exposure and to then fire trial flashes
Bs described above inthe "Auto mode" section.
Thereafter, the flash unit must be reset to
"TTL".
