Notes
• Flash exposure compensation changes the range of the flash
unit.
• Once set, the compensation value remains active until it is reset
to , no matter how many pictures are taken or if the camera is
±0
switched off.
• A compensation value configured on the camera will be
overruled when a relevantly equipped flash unit is attached, e.g.
a Leica SF 60 and a compensation value is entered on that flash
unit.
• The menu item
Flash Exposure Compensation
conjunction with flash units on which the compensation value
cannot be set manually (e.g. Leica SF 26). The settings on the
scale in the camera menu can therefore only be confirmed if a
suitable flash unit is connected and switched on.
• A brighter flash illumination with Plus compensation will require
a greater flash intensity. Flash exposure compensation will
therefore impact on the flash range: A Plus correction will
decrease it, a Minus correction will increase it.
• An exposure compensation set on the camera will only affect
the measurement of ambient light. If a simultaneous TTL flash
exposure metering compensation is desired in flash mode, then
it must be additionally set on the flash unit. (Exception: On the
Leica SF 26, the compensation value must be set on the camera
via menu control.)
