In P mode, 1/250 is selected and the TTL flash is automatically set to - 1 2/3 EV (assuming normal ambient lighting). In A mode, 1/250 is selected and TTL adjustments (+ or -) must be done on the TTL adapter or on the flash depending on the model. If you want flexibility in shutter speed selection, you must use T or M mode. Obviously, M mode gives the ultimate flexibility and, in practice, I find that it works best for TTL fill flash. - -- Rolfe Tessem rolfe@ldp.com Lucky Duck Productions, Inc. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
