THE FASCINATING RESULTS OF CREATIVE EXPOSURE AND HIGH-SPEED SYNCHRONIZATION By Aklo Kojima Have you always been satisfied with the resulting images when using the camera's meter or an automatic exposure system? Chances are, most of the time you've been happy with the results.
Highlight-based exposure, on the contrary, gives the highest priority to the highlight area. This exposure allows the shadow area to come out somewhat darker. Advanced photographers oriented for creative photography base their exposure selection on these considerations. Measuring the values on several important spots of the image with a hand-held spot meter, they have to take all the troublesome and timeconsuming steps necessary to calculate the exposure mentally.
CENTER-WEIGHTED AVERAGE LIGHT METERING for its basic light metering system. This system situations when front-lighting and contrast isn't too strong. Since the OM-3Ti has a light-receiving element in an emphasizes measurement of brightness in the center of the screen, rather than averaging measurement of the ideal position at the bottom of the mirror box, the amount of light that arrives at the light-receiving element doesn't brightness of the entire screen.
OTF AUTO LIGHT METERING The OM-3Ti has manually selectable shutter speeds. But combined with a T-series flash, the camera also provides full control of flash lighting via OTF auto light metering. This system automatically controls flash intensity while directly metering the flash lighting being exposed on film. For this reason, there is no deviation between the metering area of the flash sensor and the area actually exposed. Moreover, aperture settings can be used.
SPOT METERING (1) This spot metering system measures the brightness of the central spot of the picture frame (2% of the entire frame). The center-weighted average light metering provides correct exposure for subjects in follow light and in would also be desirable to express subtle lighting effects according to the photographer's subject motive. To realize such sophisticated expressions, fine metering of various spots on the subject is required.
SPOT METERING (2) To ensure correct operation of the spot metering: In spot metering, it is necessary to put the area to be metered in the microprism section. If there is a brighter spot in the microprism section, than the intended subject, the metering value will be affected. If a lens is changed, the light receiving angle for spot metering also changes automatically. The angle is narrower with telephoto lenses, and wider with wide angle lenses.
When you point the camera at the main subject and press the spot button, the camera will measure the brightness of the area where you position the outer edge of the microprism and hold it in memory. This metered value is kept in memory even if the camera angle is changed afterwards. So you can recompose the shot in whatever way you want. Exposure selection can be achieved by simple operation of the aperture and shutter speed rings after choosing your favorite composition.
60
SHOOTING WITH ONE-POINT SPOT METERING This is partial metering of only one point on the picture frame. Correct exposure is obtained by simply pressing the spot button. We will give a simple example to explain when one-point spot metering is used. If a backlighted girl is exposed on averaged light metering, the expressions in her face will not be clear because it comes out entirely underexposed under the effect of sunlight.
62
SHOOTING WITH MULTI-SPOT METERING This is a partial metering of two or more spots on the picture frame. It can be used to determine exposure by taking into account various spots that differ in brightness. The picture above shows an example in which the exposure of the background should also be considered while taking care to prevent underexposure of a girl. The first spot metering is made on her face by bringing it in the microprism section.
64
SOPHISTICATED MULTI-SPOT METERING The OM-3Ti's multi-spot metering system provides highly sophisticated light measurements. Let us take an example in the picture above. If you want to place emphasis on the exposure of the girl, taking the background brightness into consideration, too, you can take two spot meterings on her face and one spot metering on the background, for instance. Exposure is determined from the average of these three values, with greater emphasis on the girl (a 2:1 lighting ratio).
66
HIGHLIGHT CONTROL The Highlight button enables white objects to come out white. It is very useful for copy work and shooting light or white subjects on the whole. After spot metering is made on the white subject, then press the Highlight button. The exposure value needed for rendering it in true white will be automatically calculated and set. In the example picture, the brightest spot of the tableware has been metered on spot metering.
68
SHADOW CONTROL The Shadow button enables black objects to accurately come out black. It is very useful for shooting dark or blackish subjects on the whole. After a spot metering is made on the black subject, then press the Shadow button. The exposure value needed for rendering it in a rich black will thus be automatically calculated. In the example picture, the deep shadow area beside the dial has been inputted. As a result, the black portion comes out "black" without being grayish.
70
VIEWFINDER INFORMATION The OM-3Ti shows shooting information clearly on a large liquid crystal display so that you can concentrate your attention on the subject in the viewfinder. When shooting with center-weighted average light metering or with spot metering, correct exposure can be obtained simply by aligning the bar displays with the fixed point by manipulating the aperture and shutter-speed rings.
EXPOSURE COMPENSATION The OM-3Ti also permits exposure compensation with the exposure compensation dial in OTF auto flash shooting. If the background is brighter than the subject, turn the dial and set it to a (+) side position. The amount of exposure is double on (+1) position, and four times on (+2) position. If the background is darker than the subject, turn the dial and set it to a (-) position. If the compensation dial is turned, the +/- display in the viewfinder blinks.
DEPTH OF FIELD SCALE The double series of numbers engraved on the depth of field scale represent F stops: F4, F8 and F16. Once you between the marks for the F/stop you have selected will have acceptable sharpness. have focused on your subject, all objects within the distance range indicated on the lens distance scale 73 • For other lenses, see the lens instruction manual.
PREVIEW BUTTON When you wish to see which objects fall within the acceptable zone of sharpness (depth of field), press the preview button on your lens. The diaphragm of the lens will stop down to the preset F stop enabling you to see the depth of field in the viewfinder. CAUTION: If you jerk the preview button while depressing the shutter release button halfway down the shutter might be released.
SHUTTER SPEEDS This camera offers various possibilities for visual expression by changing the shutter speed. High shutter speeds can be used to "freeze" a moving subject to give sharp definition of the image. Shutter speeds of 1/2000 ~ 1/500 sec. can "stop" the movement of a considerably fast moving subject. A shutter speed of about 1 /250 sec. will be enough to shoot a child at play, if he is not moving too quickly. There are two methods for giving dynamic expressions.
BULB EXPOSURE When an extended shutter speed is required, as in stellar photography and night-scene shooting, use the B (bulb) mode. Almost no battery power will be consumed in this setting. Automatic control of flash strength by the OTF auto metering function is also possible in this mode. However, the green LED in the viewfinder won't light. Note: Use of a tripod and cable release is recommended for bulb shooting.
MULTIPLE EXPOSURES INFRARED PHOTOGRAPHY By tripping the shutter several times on the same frame, multiple images are produced on the same frame. This is how to do: After the first exposure is ended, erect the rewind crank and turn it clockwise as far as it will go to take up film slack. While holding both the rewind knob and rewind button with your fingers to prevent them from moving, wind the film advance lever. In fact, the film is not wound and the shutter is cocked by this operation.

FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY photographic applications. Electronic flash is especially useful in unfavorable lighting situations, ensuring easy, error-free picture taking. In dim light, for example, without an electronic flash you will have to use slow shutter speed with a risk of causing camera shake and blurred pictures. Under the illumination of a flourescent lamp or incandescent lamp, the picture often does not come out with correct colors because it lacks proper color balance.
OTF AUTO FLASH OPERATION OF T-SERIES FLASH With a T-series flash on the camera, the flash mode will automatically switch according to the camera mode. If you take pictures in the auto mode, set the camera's mode lever to "TTL AUTO FLASH". When the green LED turns on in the viewfinder, the flash is ready for firing. Shoot using 1/60-sec. or slower shutter speed. If you take pictures in the manual mode, set the camera's mode lever to "X" and select 1/60-sec. or slower shutter speed.

Provided with an imprint clear switch to be used when data imprinting is unnecessary.
MACROPHOTOGRAPHY The world of macrophotography is filled with marvellous discoveries. However, macrophotography has been generally considered difficult; calculations of correct exposure, in particular, have been a difficult job even for professionals. Equipped with an OTF auto metering, the OM-3Ti has solved this problem to always provide correct exposure, regardless of the magnification and aperture. All complicated exposure calculations for multi-lamp flashing are now quite unnecessary.

SELECTION OF FILTERS With the aperture and shutter, the camera can control the amount of light, but not the quality of light. Therefore, it is necessary to filter the light components that are not wanted for visual expressions. Filters are useful for this purpose. Filters for color and B&W films Skylight (1A): For absorbing ultraviolet rays. It yields natural colors on the part of a subject in the shade under a blue sky by filtering the light from the sky.
Filters for B&W films Y48 (Y2): Yellow filter which absorbs ultraviolet, violet and part of blue light. It decreases the effect of blue sky and brings out the clouds. It is also useful for taking distant shots on a bright clear day. with this filter, the sensitivity of films becomes closer to that of the human eye so that ordinary shots at close distance will appear very natural with a slightly enhanced contrast.
