and the camera sets the shutter
speed automatically to suit the
background light level. The E-

The shutter speed blinks in the viewfinder to alert you of a possible over-
exposed or underexposed background. If the maximum sync speed
blinks, the background will be overexposed. If the 30" sync speed blinks,
the background will be underexposed. Change the aperture setting until
the sync speed stops blinking and remains displayed.
