• When set to “ ^ <s>“ ” or “ » ^ ”, the internal flash will emit a pre-flash
to help prevent "red-eye” phenomenon.
• When set to " ^ ", both the built-in internal flash and the attached TLA200
will be fired regardless of subject brightness and distance, resulting in
over-exposure if the subject Is within the range of the internal flash,
• When set to “ ”, the TLA200 will be fired only, regardless of subject
brightness and distance. Slow-shutter synchronization will be selected
up to a maximum 16 seconds, in accordance with available light.
• When used with other Contax TLA flash units, exposure compensation will
not be performed, even when set for TTL mode. In this case, follow the
manual flash instructions in the section on p. 60 “Using Other Flash Units”.
