NOTES:
When firing a flash, if the flash brightness is low compared to the ambient light, the meter
may fail to detect the light. In this case, make measurements using the cord flash mode.
Rapid start fluorescent lamps and special lighting are sometimes mistaken for flash, and
accidentally measured. In this case, make measurements using the cord flash mode.
The meters tripod socket permits mounting it to a tripod or light stand and placing it
strategically when using cordless flash mode.
Reference:
After measurement, the F stop value corresponding to the shutter speed is displayed when
the shutter speed is changed.
Setting the shutter speed is similar to the previous instruction. (see page 17) of Cord flash
mode of section 2-1.
A new converted value is displayed when the film speed is changed after taking the
measurement.
Readings outside the display range or beyond the measuring range are similar to the previous
instruction. (see page 18) of Cord Flash mode of section 2-1.
