Flash basics Part 1 - TTL Flash
dvdowns
commented:
TTL flash doesn't compensate for the EV metering , you have to do that manually . Nikon's TTL-BL and Canon's E-TTL do that though - they are the newer versions of flash . With these versions the camera tells the flash to back off depending on how well exposed the ambient already is .
