Basic Minolta flash questions
Hi -
If the camera (Maxxum 7) is set to f/8 in A-mode, does setting the flash (5600 HS) compensation dial to +1 change the flash output to f/5.6 or f/11? (My guess is the former). Flash is in TTL-mode. Why does the flash range (as shown on the flash's display panel) decrease when setting flash compensation to +1? If the flash is putting out more light, shouldn't the range increase rather than decrease? To put it another way, if the flash output is changed to f/5.6, dividing the GN by 5.6 results in a bigger number (distance) than does dividing by 8. Thanks for any help in advance. Dave |
