Red-Eye Reduction; Modeling Flash - Sigma EF-610 DG SUPER Instrucciones

Exposure compensation on M mode
When using the camera on M mode, you can change the aperture value on the camera, or change the
flash power level, after setting the exposure compensation.
REAR-CURTAIN SYNCHRONIZATION
When you photograph a moving subject with slow synchronization, usually the furrow of the subject
will be exposed in front of the subject. The ordinary flash light will fire when the first shutter curtain is
fully opened, thus the subject will be exposed from the time flash is fired to the time the shutter is
closed (This is front curtain synchronization). When you use rear curtain synchronization, the flash will
fire just before the rear curtain begins to close, and the subject will be exposed by ambient light from
the time the shutter opens until the flash fires. As a result, the furrow of the subject will therefore be
recorded behind the subject, creating a more natural effect.
It can be used with cameras providing rear-curtain sync. only.

RED-EYE REDUCTION

When you take a picture with flash, sometimes the person's eyes reflect the flash light and appear as
"red-eyes", in the picture. If you use the function of "Red-eye reduction", the flash will blink
approximately 1 second, before the shutter is released, and reduce the "red-eye".

shows the result more effectively in this mode. It is possible to set the firing frequency between 1Hz and
