ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) gives more accuracy as it factors in the distance and the metering of the camera through the lens. But its main practicality is to be used with direct flash. I heard that it is very easy to get exposure errors if you use any diffuser/bounce gel etc etc... Thus many ppl still stick with TTL as it is more reliable. Take my comments with a pinch of salt and correct me if I'm wrong  blush.gif

oh...then how to utilize both features or which situation is best to fully taking advantage on each flash types? ADI/Pre-TTL

Situation-wise?

thanks

ok, so sad to me(a33)...so u mean no good f42  on a33 ? or f58 ?

if you guys never actually run with the Hang issue i mentioned it's ok...

just use it with the current habit then you will not encounter such issue....maybe i am too hardcore towards by camera so things liddat were discovered sweat.gif


Added on April 4, 2011, 9:31 pmunless Sony come out with a better flash which cope with the SLT body issue then you can wait...else just grab either 42 or 58 you like...if you are not in macro photography like they mentioned which affect your output...me myself never found the flash an issue due to my own usage

Codyx: Well done - I found the bug on the first try. Looks like a simple programming bug where they still remember the picture you are viewing even though you deleted (because you entered EVF mode.)

yuhi: Filters have a EV factor also - so if it says +1 then you need to do +1 EV in order for ADI to expose correctly.

haha...that is a ridiculous Bug sweat.gif .... now i can wash my name clean clean thumbup.gif

hope this give some tips to user getting SLT.... laugh.gif

ahemm...hope someone else get this beside me so the ....ahem....A77 won't have such issue? sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Codyx: With all due respect, while it is something we should avoid, I would think the chances of anybody else coming into this bug is very small and should not stop anybody from buying it.

I use the LCD to delete, mostly, but if I have to use EVF to delete then I am in EVF deleting, not going back and forth from LCD to EVF while deleting lah.
*
yeahh...because like i explained....tried to fully utilize the EVF super cool feature shocking.gif so i hardly involve using the LCD in the end...so the problem happens to me alot rclxub.gif..worry not, will do things more slowly for me now nod.gif sweat.gif

Thx for adding albnok, totally forgot about filters lol nod.gif


Added on April 4, 2011, 10:18 pm
ADI = direct flash (w/o diffuser bounce etc etc) (remember, like albnok said, you might have to dail in exposure compensation in between -1 EV to +1 EV if you are using filters.

TTL = everything else LOL! rclxub.gif
*
so you mean ADI not recommended for bouncing/diffusing?

Should use TTL? omg i use ADI for almost everything... shocking.gif

yuhi: No, a positive EV is always needed if there is a filter in front of the lens or flash.

Codyx: The camera always automatically switches from ADI to TTL the moment you turn the flash to bounce or detach it and trigger it wirelessly. So yes, you can leave it on ADI - I leave it on ADI so I can shoot extremely hot sun scenes with flash exposure being perfect. However if I use a diffuser I need to +EV according to its manual. (They will usually tell you how much +EV to put.)
*
for real? but the setting option din't automatically changes itself to TTL when i attach my flash in bounce position....or does it really in TTL mode? hmm.gif

In my opinion about people copying this and that, companies will pour all resources to try and mimic a technology which is received well by the market. You can see that happening now! Apple technology vs Android + the world. Companies trying to mimic apple's technology as it sells so well! Iphone practically kills off all other phones at the same price range (8 out of 10 people in my place uses an Iphone, scary but true...)

SLT or mirrorless cameras will be the future of dslr as we do not need the mirror to direct the image to the viewfinder anymore (EVF is the future!). Old film DSLRs have to rely on mirrors to reflect the image onto its OVF. In the near future, most camera might be using EVF (if the quality of the EVF improves by leaps and bounds and our world not ending at 2012).

So by that time you might say that the most dominat techology during that time was copied from a pioneer. "wah, kodak, fujifilm, Contax (rise from the dead, FTW!) etc etc... copy Sony/Canon/Nikon/Oly/Pana/Pentax technology"
*
Therefore step aside all those branding...those who make a better product worth the praise despite mimicked from any other sources....

in the end the strongest will win... icon_rolleyes.gif
