Usable Lenses with Built-In Speedlight

Usable lenses with built-in Speedlight

28mm to 300mm CPU lenses can be used with the built-in Speedlight.

Make sure to remove the lens hood.

The built-in Speedlight cannot be used at shooting distance less than 0.6m. At shorter shooting distances, we recommend using an optional Speedlight to reduce vignetting.

Vignetting occurs at the edges of the frame resulting in underexposure with the following zoom lenses, which have limitations in usable focal length or shooting distance (With colour print film, vignetting is reduced since the edges of the frame are cropped out in film processing.):

Flash Exposure Compensationtion

Flash exposure compensation lets you intentionally change the correct exposure computed by the Speedlight and the camera. For example, you can highlight the main subject by increasing the flash output or prevent the main subject from becoming too bright by decreasing the flash output.

1Set flash exposure compensation by rotating the Main-Command Dial while pressing the ˚ button until the desired compensation value appears (–3 EV

to +1 EV in 1/2 steps).

• When the flash exposure compensation is set, ~ appears in the LCD

 

 

panel and viewfinder. The compensation value can be checked by pressing

 

 

the ˚ button.

 

 

• Normally, you should compensate exposure to the + side when the

 

 

background is brighter than your main subject, or to the – side when the

 

 

background is darker.
