USING FLASH IN OTHER CAMERA MODES
Shutter Speed Priority Setting
By selecting the
S
mode of the camera, you can set the shutter speed from 30sec. to 1/X sync speed.
When you set the desired shutter speed, the camera will select the appropriate aperture value for the
background. If the subject is too light or too dark, the aperture value indicator will blink and show the
limit values (maximum or minimum aperture). In such as case, the camera proceeds to a take a flash
photograph at the limit value. Thus, the main subject in the picture should may be exposed correctly,
but the background may become under or over exposed.
Aperture Priority Setting
By selecting the
A
mode of your camera, the camera will select the appropriate shutter speed for the
scene
. If the subject is too bright or too dark, the shutter speed indicator will blink and show the limit
(highest or slowest shutter speed) value.
The highest shutter speed will be limited to the camera’s
normal flash synchronization speed. In such a case, the camera proceeds to take a flash photograph
at the limit value. Thus, the main subject in a picture should be exposed correctly, but the background
may become under or overexposed.
When used with
M
Mode
You can set the desired shutter speed and aperture value. You can set the shutter speed from top
sync speed to bulb. If you adjust the exposure according to the exposure meter indication, the camera
will work as for Daylight synchronization flash or slow, synchronization.
■ In the case of use with SD9, SD10, depending on the ISO setting, shutter speed will change to slow
shutter speed side. For more detailed information, please refer to Exposure Mode selection.
