TAKING FLASH PICTURES

  

FLASH PICTURES  

Correct exposures for flash pictures will be obtained easily and 
correctly by consulting the guide numbers printed on the 
package of the flash bulbs. 

When taking color flash pictures you may need filters or have 
to use proper bulbs according to the type of films (Day-light or 
Tungsten) you are using.  

Your camera dealer will be glad to supply the proper flash 
attachment for your camera. 

 

As you become more proficient at taking pictures, you will want to acquire accessories that increase the 
versatility of your Yashica.
