9. Correct exposure indication
37
Fig. 8: Correct exposure indicator
The „o.k.“ correct exposure indicator lights up only
when the frame will be, or was, correctly exposed in
the auto flash mode.
In this manner it is possible to manually trigger a test
flash so that the correct aperture can be established
beforehand. This is particularly valuable with
bounced (indirect) flash when reflection conditions
are difficult to judge.
The test flash is triggered with the manual firing but-
ton (fig.8). If the „o.k.“ correct exposure indicator
remains dark after the test flash, then adjust the next
larger aperture (smaller f-number) or diminish the
distance to the reflection surface or subject, and then
repeat the test flash.
The f-stop established in this manner must also be
set on the camera.
Hold the camera and the flashgun with sen-
sor in the same manner as for the actual
shot.
