Adjusting the amount of light emitted by the flash
to -2.0EV
The flash fires right after the shutter fully opens (front curtain).
With the rear curtain, the flash fires just before the shutter closes
(rear curtain). You can use this setting to create interesting effects
in your picture, such as expressing the movement of a car by
showing the tail-lights streaming backwards. The slower the shutter
speed, the better the effects turn out. If the shutter speed is faster
than 1/200, the flash fires automatically with the front curtain.
4 sec.
Rear curtain flash fires
Allows you to take pictures using the built-in flash.
When using a commercially available slave flash that is synchronized
with the camera flash, the amount of the light emitted by the flash can
be adjusted in 10 levels.
Select an emission level from [1] to [10], then press o. The bigger
number indicates the bigger amount of light emitted by the flash.
• The flash can fire in sequential shooting mode, but the interval
between shots will be longer if a high emission level is set.
