<Slow-Shutter Synchronization Flash
Photography>
Flash photography using a slow-shutter
synchronization (shutter speeds of 1/30 second
or slower) is often effective when taking portraits
against night skylines, or when you wish to
illuminate a foreground subject with flash while
also capturing a darker background scene. Slow-
synchronization flash photography can be
performed simply when you use TTL auto mode
in combination with a dedicated TLA flash unit.

E In the “Aperture-priority Auto Exposure”
mode : Set the main switch at “AEL”. In this
case, the shutter speed will be locked at the
measured value in ambient light. Make sure that
the flash is fully charged and shoot.
E In the “Manual Exposure” Mode : Set the
shutter speed at 1/30 sec. or slower. Turn the
aperture ring so that the “ $ ” mark appears in
the viewfinder. Make sure that the flash is fully
charged and shoot. :
@ When taking slow-shutter synchronous flash
pictures, use a tripod to prevent camera shake
because the shutter speed will be slow.
