TTL Flash Control
The following types of flash control are supported when a CPU lens is
used in combination with the built-in flash (0 89) or optional flash
units (0 299).
• i-TTL Balanced Fill-Flash for Digital SLR: Information from the 420-pixel RGB
sensor is used to adjust flash output for a natural balance between
the main subject and the background.
• Standard i-TTL Fill-Flash for Digital SLR: Flash output is adjusted for the
main subject; the brightness of the background is not taken into
account.
Standard i-TTL flash control is used with spot metering or when
selected with the optional flash unit. i-TTL balanced fill-flash for digital
SLR is used in all other cases.
