Nikon N6000 instruction manual Ttl, TTL auto flash

TTL

Through-The-Lens. Most SLR cameras have built-in meters which measure light after it has passed through the lens, a feature that enables exposure readings to be taken from the actual image about to be recorded on film, whatever the lens' angle of view and regardless of whether a filter is used.

TTL auto flash

The camera'slight sensor measures flash light, as refl ected by the subject on the film and shuts off the flash when measure- ment indicates correct exposure. Because the sensor that con- trols the flash receives light through the lens, TIL auto flash can be used for bounce photography, fill-in flash, multiple flash photography, etc. An additional advantage of TIL auto flash is that you can use a wide range of aperture settings, while ensuring correct exposure.

In certain cases, due to static electricity or poorly loaded battery, the N6000'smicrocomputer may turn the camera off, even with fresh, properly installed battery. For the same reason, film may not advance properly. In each

of these cases, to resume operation, simply turn the power OFF and turn ON again, or remove battery and install again.

Nikon cannot be held responsible for any malfunction resulting from the use of the camera other than as specified in this manual.
