TTL flash mode
This analogue TTL flash mode is supported by cameras from Groups A, B and C
(see Table 1). It is the normal TTL flash mode (TTL flash mode without preflash)
for analogue cameras and/or various digital compact cameras.

Automatic TTL fill-in flash mode
In most camera models the automatic TTL fill-in flash mode is activated in the
automatic program P and in the vari- and subject programs (see camera's ope-
rating instructions).
Fill-in flash mode overcomes troublesome shadows and produces a more balan-
ced exposure between subject and background with contre-jour shots. The
camera's computer-controlled metering system sets the most suitable combina-
tion of shutter speed, aperture and flash output.
Ensure that the contre-jour light source does not shine directly into the
lens, as this will interfere with the camera's TTL metering system!
There is no setting or display for automatic TTL fill-in flash in the flash unit.

8 Manual flash exposure correction

The auto flash exposure mode of most cameras is adjusted to a reflection factor
of 25% (the average reflection factor of flash subjects). A dark background that
absorbs much of the light or a highly reflective bright background (backlit shots,
for example) may result in, respectively, underexposure or overexposure of the
subject.
To offset these effects, the flash exposure can be adjusted manually for the shot
with a correction value. The extent of the correction depends on the contrast bet-
ween the subject and background!
