Metz SCA 3202-M manual Automatic TTL fill-in flash in daylight

E-1, E-300, E-330, E-500, with 40 MZ-... and 45 CL-4 is not possible!

☞Note for Group B:

For system reasons the flash units 40 MZ-..., 45 CL-4 and 50 MZ-5 support the special pre-flash technology of the above cameras only to a limited extent. In some exceptional situations, therefore, manual TTL flash expo- sure corrections (camera setting) may be necessary. Consequently, the TTL flash mode with the above camera/flash combinations is only conditionally recommended. The display

of the SCA adapter flashes as a warning when in TTL flash mode.

Automatic TTL fill-in flash in daylight

Most camera models automatically activate the fill-in flash mode when in Program mode „P“ in daylight (see your camera’s operating instruc- tions). TTL fill-in flash overcomes troublesome dense shadows and produces a more balanced exposure between subject and background with contre-jour shots. The camera’s computer-control- led metering system sets the most suitable com- bination of shutter speed, working aperture and flash output.

☞Ensure that the contre-jour light source does not shine directly into the lens as this will mislead the camera’s TTL metering system!
