Prefl ash (manual aperture control)
First apply the prefl ash custom function
(“SF PrE“) to switch
31
, then switch this
on. See “Custom functions“. The prefl ash
mode is based on the spot sensor incorpo-
rated in the refl ex mirror. Therefore posi-
tion the subject to be metered in the
center of the focusing screen for optimum
exposure.
Pressing the shutter release will set the
working aperture and initiate a release
cycle without actual exposure or fi lm
advance. The light balance displays the
exposure value determined. Vary the aper-
ture or the fl ash output and repeat the
prefl ash until the light is balanced, that is,
until only the large central line is visible.
If the reading is away from correct expos-
ure by no more than 1 EV (light balance
should not be blinking!), proper exposure
may be determined without renewed
metering, by simply varying the f-stop.
If the difference exceeds 1 EV, be sure
to repeat the reading, since the metering
range has been exceeded and subsequent
adjustment is impossible. Finally, use
switch
31
to terminate the custom-func-
tion setting.
To ensure proper metering, be sure to
avoid stray light on the focusing screen.
Note:
Contrary to TTL fl ash metering, the pre-
fl ash mode is restricted to a fi lm-speed
range of ISO 25/15° - 800/27° and is not
available in any of the automatic exposure
modes. In this case, the display will read
“no Auto“.
