Minolta Flash meter IV User Manual

MINOLTA
FLASH METER
IV
The
Minolta
Flash
Meter lV
is the most
advanced
exposure
meter
available for measur-
ing both flash
and ambient
light
sources.
By
attaching
the appropriate receptor,
you
can
take
precise
incident-light
or
ref lected-light
readings.
A
large
LCD data
panel
shows complete
exposure
information
in both
analog
and
digital form.
A
built-in microcomputer
and memory function
make
it easy
to calculate
the exposure
for highlights,
shadows, or
an average
of two areas.
The Flash Meter lV
also
features
a special
"analyze"
function
that
lets
you
take
readings
of flash
and ambient light
simultaneously. After
taking
a
reading,
you
can
vary
the exposure
settings to
make either light
source
dominant.
A
wide range
of
accessories are available for
your
Flash
Meter
lV, including
spot-
metering
attachments
and
external receptors for
incident-light
and
reflected-light
meter-
ing. And
if
you
use
a Minolta
(Maxxum)
7000 or
9000
camera,
the
Data Receiver
DR-
1000
enables
remote
control of
the camera via infrared
signals
from
the
Flash
Meter
lV.
With
other
carneras,
the
lR Receiver-Trigger
can be used
to trigger a
flash
unit
by
remote
control.
Before
using
the
Flash Meter lV,
please
read
this manual
carefully
to learn
about the
meter's
parts
and
functions.
This way,
you
can
begin to
realize
the
full
potential
of
the
Flash
Meter
lV
right from
the start.
