• Flash Sensor (Fig. 44-A)
The camera's built-in flash operates as an automatic flash
which measures the Intensi^ of the light reflected by the
subject and automatically adjusts its amount of light in
accordance with the aperture which is set. A flash sensor
which receives the light reflected from the subject mea¬
sures the amount of light in the center of the picture frame.

sure mode, the flash will always fire. It can be used as
till-in light when shooting your subject in the shade of a
tree or for obtaining a catch-light effect on portraits.
