Multi Flash Mode, Bounce Flash, Close-up Exposures

■When you set the exposure compensation on the camera, both the flash power level and background can be compensated.

■You can use both exposure compensation by flash, and exposure compensation by camera at the same time.

MULTI FLASH MODE

While the shutter is open, the flash will fire repeatedly. By doing so a series of images of the subject will be exposed in one frame. A dark background with a bright subject shows more effectively in this mode. It is possible to set the firing frequency between 1Hz and 199Hz. Up to 100 flashes can be fired continuously. The maximum number of flashes varies, depending on the flash guide number and firing frequency settings. (Please refer to table 3 on the last page)

BOUNCE FLASH

When you take a photo with flash in a room, sometimes a strong shadow will appear behind the subject, if you point the flash head upwards or sideways to reflect the light off the ceiling, wall etc. the subject will be illuminated softly. Press the lock button and adjust the flash head to set the bounce angle.

UP: 0°, 60°, 75°, 90°	DOWN: 0°,7°
RIGHT: 0°, 60°, 75°, 90	LEFT: 0°, 60°, 75°,90°, 120°, 150°, 180°

When the bounce flash mode is activated, a bounce indicator will appear on the LCD panel.

The picture will receive the color from the reflecting surface. Please choose a white surface for bouncing.

Depending on the reflecting surface, the subject distance and other factors, the effective distance range for the TTL AUTO may change. Please check for correct exposure confirmation ( TTL mark on the LCD panel) after releasing the shutter.

Close-up Exposures

For bounce flash can be tilted 7° downward for close-ups. The Flash will be effective only for the subjects 0.5 meter to 2 meters. When the flash head is tilted 7° will blink.

WIRELESS FLASH (Except SD9)

When you use the “Wireless Flash” mode, you can take pictures with a more three-dimensional feeling by shadow, or you can make natural image by shadow depending on the flash position, without any extension cord connecting the camera body and flash. In case of EF-500 DG SUPER SA-N, communication between the camera body and the flash will be done by the light of the flash. In the “Wireless Flash” mode, the camera will calculate the correct exposure automatically.
