FLASH CONTROL
The settings and functions described in the following sections only
apply to settings and functions available in this camera and in
system-compatible flash units.
SYNC POINT
Flash exposures are lit by two light sources:
– Ambient light
– Flash
Any subject elements lit primarily by the flash will almost always be
rendered in perfect focus by the short burst of light, provided the
focus is set correctly. All other subject elements in the same frame
lit by ambient light or lit from within will be rendered with varying
degrees of sharpness. Whether or not these object elements will
be rendered in sharp focus or blurred, as well as the degree of
“blurriness” depends on two interdependent factors:
– the shutter speeds
– the speed of movement of the subject elements or camera
during recording
The longer the shutter speed and the faster the motion, the greater
the difference between the two superimposed partial images.
A flash is usually fired at the start of exposure (Start of Exp.Start of Exp.). This
may result in apparent contradictions, e.g. the picture of a vehicle
being overtaken by its own light trail. This camera allows you to
synchronize the flash firing with the end of exposure (End of Exp.End of Exp.).
The sharp image will in this case be a rendering of the end of the
captured motion. This flash technique creates a more natural
impression of movement and dynamics in the image.
This function is available with all camera and flash unit settings.
Factory setting: End of Exp.End of Exp.

Notes
• Do not use sync cables that are longer than 3 m/10 ft.
• When using the flash with faster shutter speeds, a difference
between the two flash times will be barely discernible or only
noticeable for very fast movements.
