Flash Exposure Compensation - Leica R9 Instructions Manual

If the light from the flash in TTL control or auto-
matic computer mode is insufficient for a correct
exposure (underexposure), the
appears automatically in the viewfinder for
around 4 s after the shutter is released. With TTL
control, any overexposure caused by the light
from the flash is indicated by the display
appearing for 4 s. In these cases, pay attention to
the flash unit's operating range and take the
photograph again with the aperture setting
changed accordingly.
Note:
The displays are based on standardised expo-
sures. Therefore, individual photographs may be
rated as acceptable from an individual point of
view despite these displays.

Flash exposure compensation

With the switch on the SCA 3501/3502M3 adap-
ter or on the flash unit itself (SCA 3002 standard
units), regardless of the camera's exposure com-
pensation setting – which influences both the
exposure of the available light and the flash light
– you can set a flash exposure compensation,
which only influences the flash exposure, so that
you can deliberately make it stronger or weaker.
