The flash parameters for ISO, aperture and lens focal length or mirror position
are set automatically, if the camera transfers the necessary data to the flash unit.
The range indicator on the display of the control unit matches the flash parame-
ters transferred from the camera.
If the camera does not transfer one or more flash parameters to the flash
unit, you will have to adjust these settings by hand (see 6).
5.2 TTL-/E-TTL- flash mode
The TTL flash mode offers a very simple method of achieving excellent flash
shots. In this mode, exposure readings are taken by a sensor built into the
camera which measures the amount of light through the camera lens (TTL). The
electronic control circuit within the camera transmits a stop signal to the flash unit
after sufficient light has been emitted, instantly interrupting the flash. The advan-
tage of this flash mode is that all factors influencing correct exposure (filters,
change of aperture and focal length with zoom lenses, extensions for close-ups,
etc.) are automatically taken into account.
TTL flash mode is supported by all modes of camera operation (such as „P" for
fully automatic settings, „A" for aperture priority mode, „Tv" for shutter priority
mode, vari or scene modes, and „M" for manual mode).
