Re: LX Talk and Super Program TTL flash override

[Alan Chan]

Before I had the Z-1p which does a good job on outdoor fill-flash, I 
preferred to use auto or manual instead of TTL flash which I do not have 
precise control. With auto, I just set the aperture and shutter speed on the 
camera to expose the background properly, then set the auto flash 2 f-stop 
larger (if the camera is f5.6, the flash will be f2.8). Manual flash works 
the same way but have to control the exact output manually (2 x GN = 
aperture x distance), often with more pleasing results.

The best way I have found to do this kind of thing is manual exposure using 
a ratio controlled flash so you can balance the flash exposure to just 
exactly where you want it. I always find it easier to do these kinds of 
things myself than to figure out how to program the camera and flash to do 
it.
