135 About the LCD Panel Display for AF360FGZ The AF360FGZ does not have the function to set the FORMAT size to [DIGITAL], but the difference in angle of view between standard 35 mm format and the x is automatically calculated based on the focal length of the lens used (when using DA, D FA, FA J, FA or F lenses). The conversion indicator appears and the format size indicator disappears when the exposure metering timer of the x is on (it returns to 35 mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).

When the flash mode is set to [P-TTL auto], the flash pre-flashes before the actual flash and confirms the subject (the distance, brightness, contrast, whether it is backlit, etc.) using the camera 16-segment metering sensor. The flash output for the actual flash is adjusted based on the information obtained from the pre-flash, enabling flash photography with more appropriate exposure for the subject than with normal TTL auto. P-TTL auto is available in wireless flash mode when two or more AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ units are used. 1 Remove the cover of the hot shoe and attach the external flash (AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ). 2 Turn on the camera and the external flash. 3 Set the external flash mode to [P-TTL auto]. 4 Confirm that the external flash is fully charged and then take the picture.

Using the Flash
5
The AF360FGZ does not have the function to set the FORMAT size to
[DIGITAL], but the difference in angle of view between standard 35 mm
format and the
x
is automatically calculated based on the focal
length of the lens used (when using DA, D FA, FA J, FA or F lenses).
The conversion indicator appears and the format size indicator disappears
when the exposure metering timer of the
x
is on (it returns to 35
mm format display when the exposure metering timer is turned off).
* Using wide-angle panel
Use this flash mode with the AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ or AF200FG flash
unit. When the flash mode is set to [P-TTL auto], the flash pre-flashes
before the actual flash and confirms the subject (the distance, brightness,
contrast, whether it is backlit, etc.) using the camera 16-segment metering
sensor. The flash output for the actual flash is adjusted based on the
information obtained from the pre-flash, enabling flash photography with
more appropriate exposure for the subject than with normal TTL auto.
P-TTL auto is available in wireless flash mode when two or more
AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ units are used.
1
Remove the cover of the hot shoe and attach the external flash
(AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ).
2
Turn on the camera and the external flash.
3
Set the external flash mode to [P-TTL auto].
4
Confirm that the external flash is fully charged and then take the picture.
