Joy of Flash Photography

TTL flash power compensation is provided in 7 steps by half Ev 

increments for -1.5, -1.0, -0.5, 0, +0.5, +1.0, and +1.5 Ev.
To set the Flash power level select button to the power level you 

desire.
When Di600 shows no level indication LED is turned on, the 

flash power compensation level is at even (0 Ev) level as de-

fault value.

Take a picture and the aimed subject is shown with required 

lighting effect by keeping the background exposure level as 

originally expected.

Press the flash power select button, by each press of + marked 

knob, it sets the power of +0.5 

 +1.0 

 +1.5 Ev. and the - 

marked knob sets it to -0.5 

 -1.0 

 -1.5 Ev. The power level 

indication lamp shows the power level you set.

On some cameras, the TTL flash power compensation setting is 

provided in its menu mode. When setting the TTL flash power 

compensation on your camera, any compensation which is also 

set on the Di700 will be counted in addition to the compensation 

you selected in the camera’s menu mode.

With the latest TTL flash control system, the 

flash power level is always automatically 

controlled by the camera for the most 

appropriate exposure. If you wish, you can 

soften or weaken the flash light, or give more 

light to the subject without changing the 

environmental or background exposure 

effect. The Di600 can make it possible to 

quickly adjust the exposure for each 

partucular flash picture as needed.
