5.1.3 i-TTL-BL flash mode (Nikon)
These digital TTL flash modes are only
supported by CLS-compatible cameras if
lenses are used that transmit distance
data to the camera (for example, "D-AF
Nikkor lens").
The camera also takes this information
into account when applying flash output
for the shot.
5.1.4 TTL- flash mode with
measuring preflash
(Olympus, Panasonic)
The TTL flash mode with measuring pre-
flash is a further development of the
standard TTL flash mode of analogue
cameras.
Depending on the camera model, the
preflashes precede the main flash by
such a short interval that they practi-
cally cannot be distinguished from the
main flash! The preflashes do not
contribute to the lighting of the shot.
5.1.5 P-TTL- flash mode (Pentax)
The P-TTL flash operation is a type of
digital TTL flash operation and a further
development of the TTL flash operations
of analogue cameras.
5.1.6 A-TTL flash mode (Samsung)
The A-TTL flash mode is supported by
compatible Samsung cameras.
5.1.7 Preflash TTL and
ADI metering (Sony)
Preflash TTL and ADI metering are digital
TTL flash operating modes and refined
versions of the TTL flash operation found
in analogue cameras.
In the case of ADI metering, additional
distance data from the lens is incorpora-
ted into the flash exposure process. The
selection and/or setting of the preflash
TTL and ADI metering operating modes
are carried out on the camera (see came-
ra operating instructions).
Configuration procedure
• Switch on the flash unit by pressing the
button
ቢ.
• Press the “TTL” button on the flash unit
to configure the TTL mode.
• Set a corresponding operating mode on
the camera e.g. P, S, A.
• Lightly depress the camera shutter to
allow the data transfer between camera
and flash unit.If the camera supports i-
TTL-BL flash mode, this will be carried
