Advanced flash photography using the G40
Multi Flash
Bounce (with simultaneous use of
the built-in flash)
Normal Slow-Synchro
(Curtain-1 Synchro)
Follow-Synchro
(Curtain-2 Synchro)
Bounce photography uses
indirect lighting of subjects by
reflecting the flash off the ceiling
or wall. With straight flash
photography a strong shadow
often appears behind the
subject. By bouncing the flash,
you can obtain soft, well-
balanced lighting of the entire
subject. You can also use the
built-in flash together with the
G40 for additional affects.
Multi-flash emits the light
several times in one exposure.
With this flash mode, continuous
movement, such as a golf swing,
can be photographed
sequentially in one frame. It's a
multiple exposure with flash.
With Follow-Synchro mode, the
flash fires at the final point of slow-
synchro. For example, the tail-
lights of a moving automobile can
be captured on film.
When the IS-3DLX is equipped
with the teleconverter lens (1.7X)
or the wide-converter (0.8X), the
built-in flash cannot be used. We
recommend you use the G40 for
such cases.
