Flash Exposure Storage Fe - Metz Canon SCA 3102 M3 Manual Del Usuario

Focus the camera's AF sensor metering area on the
zone whose flash exposure is to be predetermined.
When the FE button on the camera is actuated (the
designation may vary with individual camera
models – please refer to the operating instructions
for the given camera), the mecablitz emits an FE test
flash. The electronic measuring circuit inside the
camera assesses the light reflected from the FE test
flash to determine the light output required for the
subsequent exposure. The main subject can then be
focused with the AF sensor metering area of the
camera. When the shutter release is pressed the
picture will be exposed with the previously
determined light output.
Note:
Any changes in the light situation after the FE test
flash has been fired will not be taken into account
when the picture is shot!
Avoid pressing the camera's FE key repeatedly
without taking a shot or reactivating the camera's
exposure system, if you are using a mecablitz 40
M-1i or 40 MZ-3i.
If you use the FE flash exposure storage in the E-
TTL mode in conjunction with a digital camera, you
must fire an E-TTL preflash prior to each shot. After
you have shot a picture with FE, avoid taking a
further picture without preflash. This is only
possible after deactivation and renewed activation
of the camera's metering system.
