Flash Range - Leica X-U 113 Instructions Manual

EN Automatic Flash Activation with Slower
Shutter Speeds -
For simultaneous and more appropriate, i.e. brighter, reproduction of
dark backgrounds and fill-in flash for the foreground. To minimize the
risk of blurring, the shutter speed is not extended beyond
other modes with flash activation. That is why pictures where the
flash is used, objects in the background are not reached by the flash
and are often badly underexposed.
To take adequate account of the available ambient light, the longer
shutter speeds required in such situations (up to 30s) are allowed
here.
Notes:
• Depending on the

may not support slower shutter speeds, as in such cases the
increase in ISO sensitivity takes precedence.

FLASH RANGE

The available flash range depends on the aperture and sensitivity
values set manually or calculated by the camera. For sufficient
illumination by the flash light, it is crucial for the main subject to be
within the range of the flash. When using the flash function underwa-
ter, please remember that the flash range will be significantly smaller
and that particles in the water may cause reflection. For details, refer
to the technical data on p. 179.
