The two established values for aperture and shutter speed
can be set on the camera because the camera’s shutter speed
is slower than the camera’s flash sync speed.
To maintain a balanced range of highlights, for instance in
order to retain the character of the shadows, the auto aper-
ture selected on the flash unit should be one setting lower
than the f-number set on the camera. In our example f/8
was selected on the camera. Consequently, we advise you to
set an auto aperture of f/5.6 on the mecablitz.
