8 Manual flash exposure correction
The auto flash exposure mode of most cameras is
adjusted to a reflection factor of 25% (the average
reflection factor of flash subjects).
A dark background that absorbs much of the light or
a highly reflective bright background (backlit shots,
for example) may result in, respectively, underexpo-
sure or overexposure of the subject.
To offset these effects, the flash exposure can be
adjusted manually for the shot with a correction
value.
The extent of the correction depends on the con-
trast between the subject and background!
In TTL flash modes, manual flash exposure correcti-
on factors of from -3 EV (f-stops) to +3 EV (f-stops)
can be adjusted on the flash unit in one-third
increments.
Tip:
Dark subject against light background:
positive correction factor.
Light subject against dark background:
negative correction factor.
Exposure correction by means of alteration of the
lens aperture setting is impossible, since the came-
ra’s automatic exposure program regards the alte-
red aperture setting as the normal working aperture
setting.
When setting the correction factor, the distance
shown in the display can change and be adjusted to
the correction factor (depending on the camera
model)!
