Automatic E Ttl Fill-In Flash Mode; Manual Flash Mode - Metz mecablitz 52 AF-1 Canon digital Mode D'emploi

7.2 Automatic E TTL Fill-in flash mode

The automatic E TTL fill-in flash mode is acti-
vated by most cameras when the automatic
programme P is selected and by Vari or sub-
ject programmes during daylight (see camera
operating manual).
Fill-in flash mode overcomes troublesome
shadows and produces a more balanced
exposure between subject and background
with contre-jour shots. The camera's compu-
ter-controlled metering system sets the most
suitable combination of shutter speed, aper-
ture and flash output.
+
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!
There is no setting or display for automatic
E TTL fill-in flash in the flash unit.

7.3 Manual flash mode

In the manual flash mode M , the flash unit
emits the full uncontrolled amount of light if
no partial light output has been selected. The
specific photographic situation can be taken
into account by adjusting the aperture set-
ting or by selecting a suitable manual partial
light setting. The setting area ranges from
P 1/1 to P 1/128 in
