Sony Metz SCA 3302 M7 - Manual (Page 14)

On various cameras the triggering control only
works in the “P” mode and the shutter priority
mode “S” (see operating instructions for the came-
ra). The triggering control can be deactivated on
some camera models: To do so, press and hold
down the flash button
on the camera (see
operating instructions for the given camera). The
flash ready signal will again be displayed in the
camera’s viewfinder when the shutter release is
lightly touched. The camera selects a suitable
shutter speed/aperture combination and a flash is
fired when a picture is shot.
On the Dynax 800si, the triggering control fea-
ture is activated by the individual function “5”
(see operating instructions for the camera).
When a Dynax 7 camera is used, triggering
control is only possible in the camera’s Full
Auto Mode (green P symbol).
Triggering control is not supported by the digi-
tal cameras Dimage A1, A2, 5, 7, 7i, 7Hi .
4.6 TTL flash control
This is an automatic flash mode in which the flash
exposure is measured by a sensor inside the
camera. This sensor measures the light that rea-
ches the film through the lens and is reflected off
the film plane. When the necessary amount of light
for a correct exposure has been obtained the
camera sends a signal to the flash unit which cau-
ses the flash to be instantly cut off. Any attach-
ments and filters that may be used on the lens are
automatically taken into account for TTL flash con-
trol. TTL flash control is supported by all operating
