USING CONTRAST-CONTROL-SYNC FLASH MODE
Using the dedicated external flash in combination with the
built-in flash allows twin flash photography (contrast-control-
synch flash photography). This is based on the difference
between the amount of light discharged from two units.
Contrast-control-sync flash is possible with the combination of following
flash units: AF360FGZ, AF330FTZ, AF500FTZ, and the built-in flash.
◆ Using the built-in flash and a dedicated
external flash.
1 Positioning the flash unit
qPlace the flash unit apart from the camera.
Do not use accessories (such a hot shoe grip) having a different num-
ber of contacts. It may cause the TTL auto flash to function improperly.
wSet the flash unit's sync mode to Contrast-control-sync.
For instructions on how to set the sync mode, refer to the flash unit's
operating manual.
2 Taking a picture
qPress the flash pop-up button to enable the built-in flash to be
used.
