Automatic TTL fill-in flash mode
In most camera models the automatic TTL fill-in flash mode is activated in the
automatic program P and in the vari- and subject programs (see camera’s operating
instructions).
Fill-in flash mode overcomes troublesome shadows and produces a more balanced
exposure between subject and background with contre-jour shots. The
camera’s computer-controlled metering system sets the most suitable combination
of shutter speed, aperture and flash output.
☞ Ensure that the contre-jour light source does not shine directly into the
lens, as this will interfere with the camera’s TTL metering system!
There is no setting or display for automatic TTL fill-in flash in the flash unit.
