Some cameras do not support the BL func-
tion in combination with SPOT exposure
metering! This flash mode "BL" will then eit-
her be automatically cancelled or cannot be
activated.
In these cases, the normal TTL flash mode
will be set.
7.3 Manual flash mode
In the manual flash mode M , the flash unit
emits the full uncontrolled amount of light if
no partial light output has been selected. The
specific photographic situation can be taken
into account by adjusting the aperture set-
ting or by selecting a suitable manual partial
light setting.
The setting area ranges from P 1/1 to
P 1/128 in
mode and P1/1 - P1/32 in
mode. The display shows the distance
at which the subject is correctly lit (see 5.2).
