Selecting The The Aperture For Use With Analog Cameras (For Auto) - Panasonic DMW-FL28E Operating Instructions Manual

Selecting the aperture for use with Analog Cameras (for AUTO)
1. Set the rotary switch A 1 to [AUTO] as illustrated.
2. Set the F number on the camera in accordance with ISO sensitivity in use.
As long as subjects are within the auto-effective distance, the flash
automatically adjusts the amount of light. You do not have to vary the F
number to get correct exposures.
• Auto-effective distance and ISO sensitivity are dependent on automatic
aperture control

• Even if a different ISO sensitivity is set, the auto-effective distance is
constant, while the F number should vary.
