Flash in Other Picture-Taking Modes

You can also use TTL autoflash with the camera set to < > (aperture-

priority AE), < > (shutter speed-priority AE), or < > (manual).

• With Type-B cameras, the < > switch does not function.

• If flash is used in the < > (depth-of-field AE) mode, it will be the same as

using flash in the < > (Program AE) mode.

Shutter Speed and Aperture Settings According to Mode

• Manually set: Set by you.

• Automatically set: Set by the camera.

• 1/x sec.: Camera's fastest sync speed. (→page 52)

• When you press the shutter button completely, the flash is fired and the picture is

taken. The flash output is controlled by TTL autoflash (off-the-film flash metering

cuts off the flash when the correct exposure is obtained) based on the aperture set.

• The background exposure is set according to the shutter speed and aperture

combination.
