6.3 Flash exposure correction (EV)

Manual flash exposure correction (EV) can help offset extreme differences in

contrast between the subject and background. Corrections from -3 f-stops (EV)

to +3 f-stops (EV) can be made, in 1/3 increments (also see 11.5).

Flash exposure correction is only activated in the TTL and P-TTL flash
modes if the camera supports this function (see the camera's operating
instructions)! Flash exposure correction is activated in automatic flash
mode A irrespective of the camera model!

Setting procedure:

• Press the

button (Parameters) until „EV“ flas-

hes on the LC display.

• Set the desired EV value using the

and

buttons.

The setting takes effect immediately.

• Press the button

to change the LC display back to

the normal view. If the button

is not pressed, the

display will change back to the normal view after

about 5 seconds.
