Page 81

In Aperture-Priority Auto (A) mode, you select aperture and the camera selecls a suitable sync speed, within a range of 1/60 to 1/250 sec. (at any ISO film speed).

Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash in A Mode

With Manual (M) , you control both aperture and shutter speed while the flash exposure is determined by scene brightness and contrast, with Matrix Balanced Fill-Flash control throughout.

e Although the slowest possible shutter speed for front-curtain sync flash photography in TIL mode, with camera at PH, P or A, is only 1/60 second, with rear-curtain sync flash photogra- phy, the shutter will operate as slowly as 30 seconds, depending on the background brightness.

e ln the Sand M modes, when you select a shutter speed faster than 1/250 sec., then turn the flash unit ON , the F4 automatically shifts to 1/250 sec.
