8. Automatic flash synch speed control
Depending on the camera type and the operating
mode selected, the shutter speed switches to flash
synch speed when flash readiness is reached (see
camera manual).
Shutter speeds faster than the cameras synch
speed cannot be set, or are automatically
converted to the cameras synch speed. Various
cameras dispose of a synch speed range, e.g. 1/30
sec. to 1/125 sec. (see the given camera manual).
The camera then selects a synch speed that
matches the camera mode, the ambient light and
the lens focal length.
With the mecablitz 45 CL-4 digital and 54 MZ-
..., shutter speeds faster than the camera’s
flash synch speed can be used in conjunction
with some camera models in the E-TTL HSS
and manual HSS flash modes (please refer to
the corresponding chapter of these operating
instructions).
Automatic flash synch speed control is not
provided by the digital cameras PowerShot Pro 90
IS, G .. . These cameras permit flash shots to be
taken at all shutter speeds. Shutter speeds faster
than 1/125 sec. should not be used if full light
output of the mecablitz is required for the existing
photographic situation.
