Dave, Unless the camera can set flash exposure compensation like the 1p then you will have to do it the old fashioned way. Basically set to manual mode, meter and set your camera settings. Then use standard exposure compensation so that the flash will fire less than needed for full exposure.
Something like metering at 1/125 @ F8 - Set the camera manually. Then set exposure compensation on the camera for -1 stop. Fire away. The metering on the camera will have the flash fire less due to the compensation, and the manual settings on the camera will properly expose not matter what the compensation is set to. This gives you flash fill. -- Best regards, Bruce Tuesday, November 4, 2003, 11:54:19 PM, you wrote: bcin> Ok so i read a bit of the PZ-1 manual at bcin> lunch(Bwaa haaa haaaa,i really do use bcin> these things)and bcin> the daylight sync flash has me concered,again,sorry folks. bcin> It basically staes that in ttl auto the camera will set a speed between 250 and 60 bcin> according to ambient bcin> light.But no more details. bcin> So say i have a person under a shade tree(as i see many bcin> wedding pictures like this so i'll bcin> use as bcin> example)and its sunny out,but i want to put a bit of bcin> extra light on the subject,being in bcin> the shade.Am i to bcin> assume that if i set my 280t to ttl auto,meter the bcin> scene,the camera/flash combo will fire bcin> off just enough bcin> light to brighten the subject,but not over do it,or am bcin> i,again,missing some important bcin> details here. bcin> Any tips from the PZ-1 owners out there. bcin> Dave
