Diffused Flash

This technique applies to a method where the light is scattered to produce a softening effect by placing a sheet of tracing paper or a

thin, white handkerchief between the flash head and subject or directly over the flash head.

Diffused flash can be used effectively when you want a softer lighting effect with close-range portraits, or to reduce reflections when

there are metal or glass surfaces within the picture area. To obtain a more pleasing, soft lighting effect, it would be preferable to

place a sheet of tracing paper a short distance away from rather than directly over the flash head.

Bounce Flash

Bounce flash is the technique of aiming the flash head at the ceiling or walls instead of directly at the subject. The result is a softer,

more natural lighting as opposed to the harsh lighting of direct flash.

And it even tilts 150 downward, making it very handy for parallax-free close-up photography. (When the flash head is tilted

downward, a red mark appears on the back of the flash head unit to warn you that the flash head is turned out of its normal

straight-ahead position, thus serving as a reminder to re-till the head upward when reverting to normal direct flash shots.) In the

TTL Auto mode, the light from the subject is metered through the taking lens to ensure you of correct exposure at all times. When

the TLA Extension Cord (sold separately) is connected, the flash unit may be used off-camera, permitting you to take flash pictures

in the TTL Auto mode at any desired flash position or angle.

While the exposure will be considerably affected by the conditions involved, satisfactory results can be obtained by using an

aperture wider than for direct flash, using a white or gray colored reflection surface.

In bounce flash, make sure that no direct light from the flash unit strikes the subject.

***

In the Normal Auto flash mode, the TLA30, set at-camera position, will enable you to take correctly exposed bounce flash shots

with the flash head positioned at any of the click stop positions because its foreside sensor is being aimed toward the subject. And

when using the TLA Extension Cord for off-camera flash, always be sure that the sensor is kept aimed at the subject.

Synchro-Sunlight

Flash Photography

When shooting outdoor pictures, photographing subject in bright sunlight or in backlit conditions, your main subject will come out

with shadow areas or be underexposed.

Daylight synch flash is effective under the following conditions:

a) When photographing subject against the light or a bright window.

b) When subject's face is darkened by shadows of a tree or when it is shaded because of sunlight being partially blocked by the

Decreasing Exposure When you want to intentionally underexpose in such

situations where your subject is shown against a background completely dominated

by dark-toned walls or furniture, you can compensate by decreasing exposure. # In

the Normal Auto or Manual flash modes, the Exposure Compensation Dial system

will not function for flash operation. In this instance, you can attain exposure

compensation by changing the lens aperture setting.

With diffused flash, less intensive light will fall upon subject due to

scattering effect of the light. Thus, allow for underexposure by using a wider

aperture setting.

that the line of view from the flash unit's foreside sensor to subject is not

obstructed.

With the TLA30 in at-camera position, the

TLA30 flash head can be elevated vertically to

a maximum of 900 (click stops at 600, 750 and

900 provided), permitting you to take bounce

flash under varying conditions with the use of

these features.

For optimum results it is necessary to

consider the reflectance ratio of the bounce

surface, the angle of bounce, and the

bounce-path distance, and choose your

f/number accordingly.

To overcome this situation, use supplementary

light from your flash unit to relieve the shadows

and beautifully capture the background at the

same time.

With diffused flash in the Normal Auto mode, be sure
