To test the TTL function with analog cameras, a roll of film has to be in
the camera. Please note whether there are limitations for your camera
in terms of film sensitivity or ISO (i.e., maximum ISO 1000) for TTL
flash operation (see your camera's operating instructions).
5.3 TTL fill-in flash mode
TTL
Fill-in flash
BL overcomes troublesome dense shadows for daylight shots
and produces a more balanced exposure between subject and background
with contre-jour shots. The camera's computer-controlled metering system sets
the most suitable combination of shutter speed, aperture and flash output.
When using a camera from Groups C, D and E (see table 1) with a D-AF
Nikkor lens, the distance to the subject is also calculated into the optimal
flash performance.
Setting procedure:
• Press the „Mode" button until „Mode" flashes on the LC display.

• Set the
BL flash mode using the UP
mode you choose is then highlighted. The setting takes effect immediately.
• Press the „Return" button
to change the display back to the normal
view. If the „Return" button
to the normal view after about 5 seconds.
If the shot was properly lit, the correct exposure indication
for about 3 seconds (see 13).
Ensure that the contre-jour light source does not shine directly into the
lens, as this will interfere with the camera's TTL metering system.
Depending on the camera model, the suitable fill-in flash mode will be auto-
TTL
matically activated after
BL flash mode has been set:
Group A:
• Automatic fill-in flash mode or matrix-controlled fill-in flash mode
• Either set automatically or manually on the camera (see camera's operating
instructions)
TTL
• Display on flash unit:

arrows. The flash
is not pressed, the display will change back
will flash „OK"
• No extra settings are necessary on the flash unit, nor is there any display
for this mode.
Group B:
• Matrix-controlled fill-in flash mode.
• Settings made on flash unit.
• Display on flash unit after saving:
Group C:
• 3D multi-sensor fill-in flash mode.
• Settings made on flash unit.
• Display on flash unit after saving:
Group D:
• D-TTL 3D flash mode.
• Settings made on flash unit.
• Display on flash unit after saving:
Group E:
• i-TTL BL flash mode.
• Settings made on flash unit.
• Display on flash unit after saving:
Some cameras do not support TTL fill-in flash mode in combination
with SPOT exposure metering. This flash mode will then either be
automatically cancelled or cannot be activated in the first place. In this
case, normal TTL flash mode, D-TTL or i-TTL modes will be set (see
camera's operating instructions).
5.4 Automatic flash mode
In the automatic flash mode A, the flash unit sensor measures the light that
reflects back from the subject. The sensor has a coverage of about 25°, and
only measures the light for the time a flash is fired by the mecablitz. The
flash is cut off as soon as sufficient light has been emitted for correct exposu-
re. The sensor of the mecablitz has to be directed at the subject.
