9. Correct exposure indication

Fig. 8: Correct exposure indicator

The „o.k.“ correct exposure indicator lights up only when the frame will be, or was, correctly exposed in the auto flash mode.

In this manner it is possible to manually trigger a test flash so that the correct aperture can be established beforehand. This is particularly valuable with bounced (indirect) flash when reflection conditions are difficult to judge.

The test flash is triggered with the manual firing but- ton (fig.8). If the „o.k.“ correct exposure indicator

remains dark after the test flash, then adjust the next larger aperture (smaller f-number) or diminish the distance to the reflection surface or subject, and then repeat the test flash.

The f-stop established in this manner must also be set on the camera.

☞ Hold the camera and the flashgun with sen- sor in the same manner as for the actual shot.
