flash photography with shutter speeds faster than the sync
speed, e.g.

s with focal plane shutter, emission of several
flashes in rapid succession approximates the effect of a con-
stant light source, thus uniformly illuminating the entire image
field during the shutter movement, automatic switching to TTL
linear flash mode (with TTL-HSS flash mode on flash unit) if
sync speed not reached
Strobe flash mode (multiple flashes fired during a picture) Auto-
matic adjustment of shutter speed in Pand A exposure modes
