Fully Automatic Flash Operation

Flash Exposure Confirmation

Fill Flash

Even in daylight, you can use the flash as fill light to reduce harsh
shadows or dark, backlit portrait subjects by filling the shadows with
the flash.

When the Speedlite 220EX is used with a camera that is set to fully-auto-
matic flash operation, the fill flash output may be reduced automatically
to balance the exposure between the subject and the background. This is
called autoflash output reduction.

The flash exposure confirmation
lamp lights for 2 sec. after the
flash fires if optimum flash expo-
sure has been obtained. If the
flash exposure confirmation
lamp fails to light after the flash
fires, the picture may have been
underexposed. Move closer to
the subject and try again.
