OPERATION
When fiash pictures are taken at high shutter speeds
in
dim
light, the background may come out dark. To improve
background exposure, use Slow Sync to extend the
automatically controlled shutter speed range down to 30 sec.
Without Slow Sync, the automatically controlled shutter speed
is
controlled between 1/250 sec. and 1/
60
sec. or 1/(focal
length) sec. When flash pictures are taken with this rather
narrow shutter speed range
in
dim light, the subject will appear
bright and well exposed, but the background may come out
very dark, almost black. Setting Slow Sync extends the
automatic controlled shutter speed range down to 30 sec.,
enabling background details to come out.
