Using the Automatic TTL Flash Mode
When the VS-570F is mounted on a compatible camera, it can set the appropriate ash level automatically, in
conjunction with the camera’s through-the-lens (TTL) metering system. To use the automatic mode, mount the
ash on the camera and follow these steps:
1. Each time you turn the ash on, it will be in automatic mode. This will be conrmed by the TTL mode
indicator on the LCD. If the ash has been set to another mode, press the Mode button repeatedly to cycle
through the ash modes until “TTL” or is shown on the LCD.
2. Make sure your camera is set on a programmed or automatic mode, or on a priority mode such as
aperture priority.
3. Press the shutter-release button on your camera halfway to ensure that the camera is communicating
with the ash. The camera’s aperture setting will be displayed on the ash LCD, and a ash icon will
appear in the camera’s viewnder.
4. Press your camera’s shutter-release button to take the picture. The Conrmation light below it will glow
green momentarily to indicate that the proper exposure was attained.
The aperture indicator on the VS-570F provides readouts up to f/11, in full-stop increments. The indicator will
display the f-stop closest to your current camera setting.
Note: The aperture setting may not appear with all cameras.
