Sony SLT-A33 - SLT-A33 Consignes d’utilisation Anglais

Notes
• When the distance between the subject and the external flash (sold separately)
cannot be determined (wireless flash shooting using an external flash (sold
separately), shooting with an off-camera flash using a cable, shooting with a macro
twin flash, etc.), the camera automatically selects Pre-flash TTL mode.
• Select [Pre-flash TTL] in the following cases, as the camera cannot perform flash
compensations with ADI flash.
– A wide panel is attached to the HVL-F36AM flash.
– A diffuser is used for flash shooting.
– A filter with an exposure factor, such as an ND filter, is used.
– A close-up lens is used.
• ADI flash is only available in combination with a lens that is provided with a
distance encoder. To determine if the lens is equipped with a distance encoder, refer
to the operating instructions supplied with the lens.
Selecting the method for measuring the brightness of a
subject (Metering Mode)
Fn button t (Metering Mode) t Select the desired mode
(Multi segment) This mode measures light on each area after dividing the total
area into multiple areas and determines the proper exposure
of the entire screen.
(Center weighted) While emphasizing the central area of the screen, this mode
measures the average brightness of the entire screen.
(Spot)
This mode measures light only in the spot metering circle
located in the center area.
Using the shooting function
Shooting techniques
• Use [Multi segment] metering for general shooting.
• When there is a high contrast subject in the AF area, measure the light of
the subject you want to shoot with the optimal exposure using the spot
metering function and take advantage of an AE lock shooting (page 100).
Note
• When the exposure mode is set to AUTO, AUTO+, or Scene Selection, [Metering
Mode] is fixed to [Multi segment] and you cannot select other modes.
