Specifications

This chart shows the aperture and shutter speed

combinations automatically chosen by the camera

in the programmed AE mode.

With bright scenes, the program automatically

select a combination of a fast shutter speed and a

small aperture, while for dark scenes, it

automatically keeps the shutter speed above the

"camera shake" limit of the lens in use (1/30 sec.

with 50mm lens) until the maximum aperture is

reached. -At that point, the shutter speed again

shifts to the next slowest speed to ensure a proper

exposure.

Flash Photography ZE-X

Flash Photography

Flash units are indispensable system accessories.

When using the Mamiyalight MZ auto electronic flash with the ZE-X, the camera automatically controls the aperture

according to the ASA film speed which you set when loading the film in the cameral and synchronizes the shutter at

1/60 sec. on charging. Moreover, when an EF Series lens is used, the revolutionary Distance Priority Flash AE system

automatically selects the aperture according to the focusing distance. This eliminates all your worries about correct

exposures and does away with troublesome exposure setting.

Crossover Performance

When the Crossover System is on, the flash will not discharge unless it is necessary and the regular crossover AE

mode takes priority. The flash will operate only when the shutter speed in any AE mode drops below the "camera

shake" limit and the flash has been recharged. If, in a bright situation, you wish to use flash for daylight

synchronization or any other purpose, either disengage the Crossover System or switch to the manual mode.
