Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash Photography
In
program,
aperture-priority or shutter-priority auto exposure
mode,
when shooting
a
scene
with
a
brightness of EV10 or
higher
(at
ISO 100)
where the subject
in the
central area of
the
triple
sensor
is darker
than
other areas by more than
approx.
1.SEV,
the ready-light
LED
blinks to tell
you
to
use built-in TTL
flash
or accessory
Nikon
speedlight for
fill-in lighting.
For automatic balanced fill-flash photography, first
set
the
camera
in
program auto exposure
mode
so correct aperture
is
automatically
selected for the
scene's
background,
using
a
synchronized
camera
shutter speed of
1/100
sec.
The
multi-
sensor
meter
of
the N4004s measures contrast and brightness
for both
subject and
background,
and automatically adjusts
speed
light output
so
you get good overall pictures
without
complicated techniques.
Maximum shooting distance for balanced fill-flash
photography

Approx. 1.5

For
scenes where the
sun,
a
shining
sea
or
a
bright
sky
covers
a large
part
of
the background, the
camera automatically
selects
smaller
apertures, and
because
the
power
of
the built-
in
flash is
limited,
the results may be
insufficient.
If the
ready-
light blinks after
shooting,
move closer
to
the
main subject
or
use
an
external
speedlight
with a
larger
guide
number
.
With
scenes
where the background
is
extremely
bright,
the
ready-light may
not blink after
the
shot,
even if
the
flash is
insufficient for
correct
exposure.
