-CONTROLS IN DETAll-continued------- - - ZoomHead @ The 88 · 16 's zoom head has four settings which provide various angles of coverage as shown in the table. The number with an orange background indicates that you can use a lens with the same or a longer focal length at that setting.
Shooting Mode Selector @l The shooting mode se lector on the back of the SB-16 has five click-stop settings. Directly above the selector (read - ing from left to right) , there are the blue and orange.
-CONTROLS IN DETAIL-continued--------- MD (synchronization with motor drive) At the motor drive (MD) setting , the S8 -16 is able to recycle fast enough to sy nchronize with a motor - driven camera firing continuously up to four frames per second . It is possible to take up to eight flash picture s in rapid succession in this way .

-CONTROLS IN DETAll-continued--------- For manual (M) operation After setting the ASA/ISO film speed and zoom setting knob on the exposure ca l culator dial , focus on the sub- ject; then look at the lens and read off the focused dis- tance to determine exactly how far away the subject actually is .
The guide number at various film speeds and zoom head settings is shown in the following table: Guide numbers in the manual mode Unit ' m(tt) Zoom head ASAIISO film speed setting 800 400 200 100 .
-CONTROLS IN DETAIL-continued---------- Now, you are ready to read the usable f/stop from the dial. Each color-coded line indicating the auto shooting range for each f/stop has a notch on it. Find the notch directly above the flash-to-subject distance and read the f-number at the end of the line.
Exposure compensation In TTL or non-TTL automa tic operation with a dark sub- ject (one with low reflectivity) or one light in tone (having high - reflectivity) , over- or undere x posure may occur . To prevent th is, exposure compensation is required .
-CONTROLS IN DETAIL-continued--------- For examp le, if you are using ASAIISO 1 00 film with the ex p osure compensation dial set at + 2 (overexposure), you can r ea d 25 from t he tab le .
Non-TTL automatic exposure compensation In the non-TTL automatic exposure mode , exposure compensation can be performed by stopping down or opening up the lens. With a dark subject , use a smaller aperture. When a subject is light in tone , use a larger aperture .

-PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES-confinued - - ---- Synchro-sunlight fill-in flash photography is possible with the S8-16's shooting mode selector set to the TTL-auto- matic, non-TTL automatic, or manual mode. Operation in the manual mode assures you of good re- sults in virtually all cases, so we will describe this proce- dure first.
In the TTL-automatic mode !~ Same as Step s 1) and 2) in the manual mode . 3) Take the picture. With the S8-16 se t at TTL and turn ed on, ju st take the pi c ture . Notes: 1) With a strongly backlit s ubject (s uch as a scene containing the sun) , the desired exposure balance may not be obtained .

Combination bounce and direct fla s h: soft , natural - looking lighting with a pleasing catchlight in the eyes . 55.
-PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES-confinued------ The procedure for bounce flash is as follows : 1) Choose the bounce surface. Select the ceiling or wall you want to bounce the flash off of ; then tilt and/or rotate the main flash head so that it pOints in that direction.
Using a diffuser It is also possible to diffuse the light by placing a trans - l ucent mater i al , such as one or mo re sheets of tracing paper, between the flash and subject. You ca n create more pronounced d i ffusion by pl acing a certain dis t ance between the diffuser and flash t han by wrapping the diffuser around the flash head .
-PHOTOGRAPHIC TECHNIQUES-continued------ Multiple Flash Photography If you have another flash unit, you can use it as a second- ary light s ource for multiple flash photography . When you use only one flash unit in front of a subject , harsh shad- ows may be produced or light m ay not reach the back- ground .
