4.2. Modalità flash

The Z3-N supports multiple flash modes for various photographic needs:

  • Modalità TTL: Through-The-Lens automatic flash, which measures the light through the camera lens to determine the correct flash output.
  • Modalità M (Manuale): Allows manual control over flash output from 1/256 to 1/1 power with 0.1EV precision.
  • RPT (Stroboscopic) Mode: Emette una serie di rapidi lampi durante una singola esposizione, ideale per catturare più movimenti di un soggetto.

4.3. Sincronizzazione ad alta velocità (HSS)

The Z3-N supports 1/8000s HSS, allowing you to use flash at shutter speeds faster than your camera's native sync speed. This is useful for freezing fast action or overpowering ambient light outdoors.

4.4. Front/Rear Curtain Sync

Supports both front and rear curtain sync. Front curtain sync fires the flash at the beginning of the exposure, while rear curtain sync fires it at the end, creating different motion blur effects.
