In the non-TTL automatic mode
1) Set a shooting aperture on the lens.
Read off the
two usable apertures from the exposure calculator dial
and set one of them on the lens.
2) Take a meter reading of the background.
Frame the
background in the camera’s viewfinder and turn on the
camera's meter to determine the proper shutter speed
for the aperture you have set. Note that the shutter speed
should be within the flash synchronization range for the
camera you are using.
3) Take the picture.
With the SB-16 set at A1 or A2 and
turned on, take the picture
only if
a proper synchroniza
tion speed is available.
Notes:
1) Exposure is more easily affected by the brightness of the background
in the non-TTL automatic mode than it is in the TTL-automatic mode.
2)
Because
the
usabie
apertures
are
iimited
in
the
non-TTL
automatic
mode, a proper shutter speed to match the shooting aperture may not
be available.
