Adjusting the Flash Exposure Compensation
Still Images
Movies
Just as with regular exposure compensation (
=
74), you can adjust the
ash exposure from –2 to +2 stops, in 1/3-stop increments.
z Raise the ash, press the [
] button, and
choose [ ] in the menu. Turn the [ ] ring
to choose the compensation level, and
then press the [ ] button.
When there is a risk of overexposure, the camera automatically
adjusts the shutter speed or aperture value for ash shots to
reduce washed-out highlights and shoot at optimal exposure.
However, you can deactivate automatic adjustment of the shutter
speed and aperture value by accessing MENU (
=
29) and
choosing [
5] tab ► [Flash Settings] ► [Safety FE] ► [Off].
You can also congure the ash exposure compensation by
accessing MENU (
=
29) and choosing [ 5] tab ► [Flash
Settings] ► [Flash Exp. Comp].
You can also access the [Built-in Flash Settings] screen (
=
29)
as follows.
- Press the [
] button when the ash is up, choose [ ] in the
menu, and then press the [
] button.
Slow Synchro
Fires to illuminate the main subject (such as people) while shooting at a
slower shutter speed to illuminate backgrounds out of ash range.
In [ ] mode, mount the camera on a tripod or take other
measures to keep it still and prevent camera shake. Additionally,
you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when using a tripod or other
means to secure the camera (
=
52).
In [
] mode, even after the ash res, ensure that the main
subject does not move until the shutter sound is nished playing.
Off
For shooting without the ash.
If a blinking [ ] icon is displayed when you press the shutter
button halfway in camera-shake inducing, low-light conditions,
mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it
still.
You can also congure this setting by touching [ ], touching an
option, and then touching it again.
