wslam Posted January 18, 2019 Share #1 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) When I mount either the SF60 or the Profoto AirTTL For Nikon transmitter on the CL, the screen does this. I should point out that the SF60 only does this if it is on Wireless Slave mode. In TTL mode, it is fine. When I half press, this 'flashing' of the screen stops and things resume to normal. I assume this is not normal behavior? Edited January 18, 2019 by wslam Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Hi wslam, Take a look here (CL) Strange behaviour when a flash is mounted. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
sleepyhead Posted January 18, 2019 Share #2 Posted January 18, 2019 My Leica SL also does that sometimes with a flash attached. I think it might have to do with the setting regarding whether the EVF shows a “true” simulation of the resultant exposure, or if it is brightened up to allow composing and focusing. (I don’t have my camera at hand but I think it’s called “exposure simulation” in the menu.) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayBird Posted January 23, 2019 Share #3 Posted January 23, 2019 I read on another site where the EVF settings when using a flash may need to be adjusted. They addressed Canon and Nikon. It could be it is a similar situation with Leica. Not having a flash, I have not concerned myself with it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photon42 Posted January 23, 2019 Share #4 Posted January 23, 2019 That's why it's called "flash" ... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wslam Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted January 23, 2019 Thanks. I figured it out. This only happens when I am in M mode with Exposure Preview on for M (by default it is off). I suppose this is how the camera is telling you that the exposure preview cannot be shown with Flash enabled. If I set Exposure Preview to PSA instead of PSAM, the 'flashing' of the LCD/EVF disappears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleepyhead Posted January 23, 2019 Share #6 Posted January 23, 2019 Great that you checked it, that was my suspicion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
