7. Set the camera's shutter speed for proper syn- chronization.

8 Set the exposure calcu- -lator dial @ .

Turn the dial until the ASAIISO film speed index @is opposite the number for the speed of the film in use. The three thick color-coded lines @ above the £lstop scale @ indicate the three usable f/stops for automatic operation and the distance scales @ below the usable £lstop scales give you the range of flash-to-subject dis- tance. For example, if you're using ASAIISO 100 film, the usable £lstops are f/4, below the orange line, £15.6, below the yellow, and £18, below the blue. The range of flash-to-subject distance for each £lstop is 0.6m to 8m (2 to 26 ft.), 0.6m to 5.6m (2 to

18 ft.), and 0.6m to 4m (2 to 13 ft.), respectively. (For more information on selecting the flstop, refer to "Ex- posure Calculator Dial" on page 12.)
