2.Measuring electronic flash

This method of measurement can be done in the following modes; with cord, without cord, and Wireless flash radio triggering mode (cumulative or non-cumulative). When Measuring flash light, the shutter speed and F stop value (value combining ambient light and flash light: total amount of light) are displayed. The ambient light and flash light are each displayed as separate values together with the total amount of light on the analog scale. In addition, the ratio of flash light to the total amount of light is displayed at that time as a value in 10% steps.The flash reading is displayed as a blinking mark above the analog scale. (See page 27 for details)
