Setting exposure compensation for flash

The setting method varies depending on the camera.

Cameras in Groups I and II

Cameras with EV compensation control capability allow you to compensate flash exposure on either the SB-27 or the camera (or both.) If you use both controls, exposure is modified by the sum total of both exposure compensation values.

For example, with a compensation of +1EV on the SB-27 and +1EV on the camera, the background will be +1EV and the flash output will be +2EV. Keep in mind that the SB-27's exposure compensa- tion value indicator will not display the sum total of both compensation values. Only the compensation value set on the SB-27 is displayed.
