<Measuring in Flash Light Mode>
Flash illumination is light that is produced by the very brief light pulse of an electronic
ash unit or ash bulb.
This measuring method includes the cord and cordless ash modes.
When measurements are taken, the meter will indicate the aperture value required for
proper exposure. The displayed value indicates the total amount of light, including ash
light and ambient light, measured during the shutter speed time set.
