Hallo Bob,
the higer spees are automatically reset to 1/125, but the lower speeds
remain!
To all others: thanks for the replies sofar. Seem to hold some good
techniques, which I'll have to think over, before I understand them well...
Groeten,
Vic

It's been a while since I've used the Super A, but doesn't it
automatically set a 1/125 speed when you turn the AF280 on?

Hallo,
I own the Super A (with TTL-flash) and the AF280T. The manual of this
camera says: "In metered manual mode, speeds slower than 1/125 sec. stay
as are when the dedicated flash recycles. Choosing any slow speed, you
can enjoy existing light photography with flash fill-in."
So when I put the camera on 'M' and select an aperture like f/8 and a
speed like 1/30 in some environmental light condition where this would
cause an underexposure of 3 stops, I would expect the flash to just give
the necessary light to make this a good exposure.
Is this actually what the camera does?
I notice that the flash fires when the shutter opens, so in any way, it
won't take into account the 'available light' hitting the film during
exposure.
