Application Shooting of Auto Flash

Slow-speed Sync Mode

When using a normal flash to shoot a portrait, etc., in a
night or evening setting, the background will appear
very dark because a normal flash light cannot
sufficiently light it. However, it is possible to balance
both subject and background by using the flash to
properly expose the foreground subject and a slow
shutter speed to expose the low light background.

If your camera supports this mode, you can perform
auto flash shooting. Before shooting, confirm the
following.
1. Whether your camera supports slow-speed sync

mode.

2. Whether the shooting mode of your camera

supports slow-speed sync mode.

Also refer to the operation manual of the camera.

- Be sure to make the shutter speeds slower than the X-sync speed.
