Manual Flash (M) - Sony HVL-F42AM Operating Instructions Manual

Manual flash (M)

Normal TTL flash metering automatically adjusts the flash intensity to provide the
proper exposure for the subject. Manual flash provides a fixed flash intensity
irrespective of the brightness of the subject and the camera setting.
• Manual flash can only be used when the camera is in the M mode. In other
modes, TTL measuring is automatically selected.
• As manual flash is not affected by the reflectivity of the subject, it is convenient
for use with subjects with extremely high or low reflectivity.
