FILL-FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
26
A backlit
subject,
such as a person outside with their back
to the
sun,
or indoors in front of a window, usually appears
as a silhouette if
the
exposure is set for background
brightness.
If the exposure is set for a
darker,
silhouetted
subject,
then the background will be overexposed and
appear washed out.
A
better result can be achieved by leaving the exposure
set
for the brighter background and then using the flash to
illuminate the
darker
foreground subject. This brings the
brightness
of the foreground subject up to the brightness
of
the
background.
This technique is called
"
fill-flash
",
and
the
88-24
together with a Nikon
F4,
F-801/N8008 or F·401
sl
N4004s
provides all the exposure control to automatically
accomplish
fill-flash.
