Nikon SB-22 instruction manual TTL Mode, A1 or A2 Mode

Page 38

In TTL Mode

1.Set the camera shutter speed manually to a flash synchronization speed or slower speed.

2.Frame the background in the camera viewfinder, turn on the camera's exposure meter to determine aperture for a correct background exposure, then set the aperture on the lens.

3.Set the flash mode selector to TTL, turn on the S8·22and take the shot.

With a strongly backlit subject (e.g., scene which in- cludes the sun), it may be difficult to obtain desired exposure balance. In this case, use the S8-22 in M mode.

Note: Do not use programmed TTL flash operation for fill-in flash photography.

In A1 or A2 Mode

1.Determine correct aperture for the backlit subject (according to method on page 23) by referring to the S8-22's aperture selection/distance range panel , then set both the aperture index and the aperture on the lens.

2.Frame the background in the camera viewfinder and turn on camera meter to determine proper shutter speed for the aperture set on the lens. The shutter speed must be equal to or slower than the flash sync speed-without a proper shutter speed you cannot perform fill-in flash photography in A1 or A2 mode.

3.Set the shutter speed from step 2 on camera's shutter speed dial.

4.Set the flash mode selector to A1 or A2, turn on the

flash unit and take the shot.

With a strongly backlit subject, perform fill-in flash photography in M mode.
