FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY

  

 

An use of flash equipment is recommended when shooting under subdued light conditions. To use a cordless 
flash unit, set it on the direct contact shoe on the camera. For the use of conventional type strobe or AC flash 
unit, plug its cord into Synchro-Terminal.  
 
The FP or X synchronization is determined by the built-in automatic selector according to the setting of the 
Shutter Speed Control Dial.  
 

SPEEDS FOR FLASH SYNC

  

 
* Electronic flash---- Set speed to "60-X" (Synchronizes also at all speeds under 1/60 sec. and B)  
 
* M.F class bulbs--Synchronizes at 1/30 sec. or slower speeds, and B.  
 
* F.P class bulbs--Synchronizes at all speeds other than 1/60 sec.  
 
Correct aperture setting in flash photography is obtained by dividing the flash guide number by the flash-to-
subject distance.  
 
 
 

"B" SETTING
