6. Advanced Functions9. Flash analyzing functionWhen measuring flash light, the shutter speed and F stop value (value combining ambient light andflash light: total amount of light) are displayed in the liquid crystal display and the ambient light andflash light are each displayed as separate values together with the total amount of light on theanalog scale. In addition, the ratio of flash light to the total amount of light is displayed at that timeas a value in 10% steps. It is possible to use this value for adjustments, for example, whenphotographing with a flash in a room illuminated by tungsten light, to emphasize or weaken thetungsten (ambient) light element (enhancing the flash light of the photograph) to match thephotographer's intentions.< Example >If, under certain conditions, the flash light component is60% and the tungsten output component is 40%, thedisplay will be as indicated at the right. Flash reading onthe analog scale will blink.1. To emphasize the tungsten (ambient) light (to imbuethe atmosphere with orange-colored tones)To increase the ratio of tungsten light, use the Jogwheel t to change the shutter speed to a slowersetting.It is apparent that the flash light component is now20%. The analog scale also shows the tungstenoutput component to be about 2.5 stop higher thanthe flash light component.As a result, images on the film are expressed withorange tones that give life to the effect of thetungsten light.2. To reduce the effect of tungsten light (to realize amore natural atmosphere)To decrease the ratio of tungsten light, use the Jogwheel to change the shutter speed to a faster setting.It is apparent that the flash light component is now80%. The analog scale also shows the flash lightcomponent to be about 1.5 stop higher than theambient light component.As a result, the images on the film are expressed innatural color tones.Reference:• Slower shutter speeds allow more available light to reach the film, and faster shutterspeeds allow less available light to reach the film.• The settings above are made by adjusting the tungsten (ambient) light by the shutter speed. Itis also possible to modify the ratio by adjusting the flash light (when changing the distancebetween the flash and the subject or when changing the amount of light of the flash). Whenusing this method, re-measure each time the flash light is adjusted.-32-
