With a flash that has a wireless shooting function (sold separately), you can

shoot with the flash without a cord, even when the flash is not attached to

the camera. By changing the position of the flash, you call shoot all image

with a three dimensional feel by highlighting the contrast of light and

shadow' on the subject.

For the actual steps of shooting, refer to the operating instructions of the

flash.

• If you pert_rm it test fire of the flash, press the AEL button.

Notes

• The camera cannot carr_ out the wireless lighting ratio control.

• Turn off the wireless flash mode afler wireless flash shooting. If the built-in flash is

used while the wireless flash mode is still active, inaccurate flash exposures will

result.

• Change the channel of the external flash when another photographer is using a

wireless flash nearby and his/her built-in flash light causes your external flash to fire.

To change the channel of the external flash, rellzr to the operating instructions

supplied with it.

Setupof the AELbutton

When using a wireless flash, it is recommended that you set [AEL button]

to [AEL hold] in the _ Custom menu (page 148).

Adjustingthe brightnessof the image

(Exposure,Flashcompensation,

Metering)

When shooting into the stm o1"by a window, the exposure may not be

appropriate for the subject because of the big difference ill lighting between

the subject and the backgrotmd. [n such cases, use the light meter where the

subject is bright enough and lock the exposure before shooting. To reduce

the brightness of the subject, point the camera forwards a spot that is

brighter thau the subject and use the light meter to lock the exposure of the

entire image. To make the subject brighter, point the camera forwards a

spot that is darker than the subject and use the light meter to lock the -_.

exposure of the entire image.

This section describes how' to shoot a brighter image of the subject using _="

AEL button after the shooting. The setting is canceled when the button is

released.

Except for exposure mode M, the exposure is automatically selected

(Automatic exposure).

Based on the exposure acquired by the automatic exposure, you call

perform exposure compensation by shifting the exposure to either the +

side or the - side, depending on your preference. You can make the entire

image brighter by shifting to the + side. The entire image becomes darker

when you shift it to the - side.

• [nstead of the Graphic Display, the histograru is displayed after you press

DISP on the control button several tirues.

The exposure compensation will change

the histogram accordingly. The right

illustration is all example.

Shooting with the exposure

compensation on the positive side

brightens the whole picture, making the

entire histogram shift to the bright side

(right side). If the exposure compensation

is applied on the negative side, the

histogram will shift to the other side.

Both ends of the histogram show' a high-

key or low-key portiom You cannot

restore these areas with a computer later.

Adjust the exposure if necessary and

shoot again.

Holes

• The histogram does not indic_te the final recorded im_ge. It iudic_tes the condition

of the image just monitored on the screen. The histogram will difllzr based on

aperture setting, etc.

• The histogram dif[izrs between shooting and playback in the following situations:

When firing the flash.

When the subject has low intensity, such as night scenery.

When shooting with the flash, you can adjust the amount of flash light

alone, without changing the exposure compensation. You can only change

the exposure of a main subject which is within the flash range.

• The higher flash eflect may not be visible due to the limited amount nf flash light, if

the subject is outside the maximum range of tile flash, lfthe subject is very close, the

lower flash ef[_ct may not be visible.

Exposure compensalion and flash compensalion

Exposure compensation changes tile shutter speed, aperture, and 1SO sensiti'vity (when

[AUTO] is selected) to perform tile compensation.

Flash compensation only changes the amount of flash light.

ADI flash This method controls the lighting of the tqash, factoring in tile

focus distance inlormation and light metering data frnm tile

preqlash. This method enables an accurate tqash

compensation with virtually no effect frnm the reflection nff

the suhject.

Pro-flash TTL This method controls tile amount of llash light depending on

the data only from pre-tqash light metering. This methnd is

susceptible to tile reflection nff the subject.

ADI: Advanced Distance [ntegration

TTL: Through the lens

• When [ADI flash] is selected, using a lens that is provided with a distance

encoder feature can perform more accurate flash compensation by using

more accurate distance information.

Notes

• When the distance between the subject and the external flash (sold separately)

cannot be determined (wireless flash shooting using an external flash (sold

separately), shooting with an off-camera l]ash using a cable, shooting with a macro

twin flash, etc.), the camera automatically selects Pre-flash TTL mode.

• Select [Pre-flash TTL] in the following cases, as the camera cammt perli)rm flash

compensations with AD1 flash.

A wide panel is attached to the HVL-F36AM flash.

A diffuser is used for flash shouting.

A filter with an exposure factor, such as an ND filter, is used.

A close-up lens is used.

• AD1 flash is only available in combination with a lens that is provided with a

distance eucoder. To determine if the lens is equipped with a distance eucoder, reflzr

to the operating instructions supplied with the lens.

(Multi segment) This mode measures light on each area al:er dividing the total

area into multiple areas and determines the proper exposure

of the entire screen.

IZ_l(Center weighted) While emphasizing the central area of the screen, this mode

measures the average brightness of the entire screen.

[] (Spot) This mode measures light only in the spot metering circle

located in the center area.

• Use [Multi segment] metering for general shooting.

• When there is a high contrast subject in the AF area, measure the light of

the subject you want to shoot with the optimal exposure using the spot

metering function and take advantage of an AE lock shooting (page 103),
