Set the camera for Aperture Priority Mode A or
Manual Mode M (see camera manual).
In the aperture priority mode A the camera will
automatically select a suitable shutter speed. In
the manual mode M you will have to set an appro-
priate shutter speed on the camera (see operating
instructions for the camera; e.g. approx. 1/60 s).

If the camera’s precise aperture value cannot
be set, then select on the flash unit the one
that comes closest to it. If necessary take test
shots with different auto working apertures.
