Adjusting the Flash Exposure Compensation
Still Images Movies
Just as with regular exposure compensation (
=
68), you can adjust the
ash exposure from –2 to +2 stops, in 1/3-stop increments.
● Press the [
] button, choose [ ] in the
menu, and adjust the setting by either
pressing the [ ][ ] buttons or turning
the [ ] dial (
=
27).
● The correction level you specied is now
displayed.
● When there is a risk of overexposure, the camera automatically
adjusts the shutter speed or aperture value for ash shots to
reduce washed-out highlights and shoot at optimal exposure.
However, you can deactivate automatic adjustment of the shutter
speed and aperture value by accessing MENU (
=
28) and
choosing [
] tab ► [Flash Settings] ► [Safety FE] ► [Off].
● You can also congure the ash exposure compensation by
accessing MENU (
=
28) and choosing [ ] tab ► [Flash
Settings] ► [Flash Exp. Comp].
● You can also access the [Flash Settings] screen (
=
28)
when the ash is up by pressing the [
] button and immediately
pressing the [
] button.
Slow Synchro
Fires to illuminate the main subject (such as people) while shooting at a
slower shutter speed to illuminate backgrounds out of ash range.
● In [ ] mode, mount the camera on a tripod or take other
measures to keep it still and prevent camera shake. Additionally,
you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when using a tripod or other
means to secure the camera (
=
79).
● In [
] mode, even after the ash res, ensure that the main
subject does not move until the shutter sound is nished playing.
Off
For shooting without the ash.
● If a blinking [ ] icon is displayed when you press the shutter
button halfway in camera-shake inducing, low-light conditions,
mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it
still.
