[Leica] LUG Digest, Vol 46, Issue 240

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

TTL is great but a lot of pictures were taken for a couple of decades with a
sensor on the flash itself and everybody was happy with it and the pix still
exist none of them have faded.
With Leica M its less of a tele thing more of a wide thing so TTL is less of
a great thing.
With a TTL setting you'll blow about 3% of your shots. With the A setting or
sensor on flash its maybe 6%. That's 6 out of a hundred shots you'll not
like the exposure so much. That's how I and the people I knew experienced it
for the most part.
