Flash shots with the RETINA automatic I
Slide your flashgun, for instance the
KODABLITZ, into the accessory shoe of your
camera, plug the flash cable into the flash socket
(o), and set the required distance.
Disconnect the automatic exposure control and set
the aperture (F/no.) as required. The aperture is
dependent on the guide number of the flash bulb or
electronic flash unit used and the distance set.
The guide number is specified on the packages of flash bulbs and in the operating instructions for
electronic flash units. The following rule applies:
Guide number divided by distance aperture
If, for instance, your guide number is 72 and your distance 6.5 ft., 72 6.5 = approximately 11.
This means that you have to turn the shutter ring (p) until the red aperture figure 11 of the flash
scale (marked in red) is opposite the setting mark (q). The shutter speed in the flash range is
always '/30 second. You are now ready to take a flash shot.
Time exposures are possible too
