Sony DSLR-A900 Betriebsanweisung

When shooting with the flash, you can adjust the amount of flash light 
alone, without changing the exposure compensation. You can only change 
the exposure of a main subject which is within the flash range. 
Adjusting it toward + makes the flash level higher and adjusting it toward – 
makes the flash level lower.

Notes
• If you have adjusted the flash level, 

 appears in the viewfinder when the flash is 

attached on. When you adjust it, be careful not to forget to reset the value.

• The positive effect may not be visible due to the limited amount of flash light, if the 

subject is at or around the maximum range for the flash. If the subject is very close, 
the negative effect may not be visible.

Exposure compensation and flash compensation
Exposure compensation changes the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO sensitivity (when 
[AUTO] is selected) to perform the compensation. If the flash is used, the amount of 
flash light is also changed.
However, flash compensation only changes the amount of flash light.

Adjusting the amount of flash light (Flash compensation)

Select the flash compensation 
item with v/V/b/B on the multi-
selector.
