ttl闪光灯控制（TTL flash control） TTL (through the lens) flash control is a special flash function, also known as TTL flash automatic control. It not only requires the flash to have this function, but also requires the camera to have the corresponding mechanism, cooperate with each other in order to play a role. The principle is similar to that of an automatic dimming flash, but metering is accomplished by a special metering element in the camera, which is located at the bottom of the reflector case. In the flash exposure, the light measuring element in the camera directly measures the reflected light (OTF mode) of the film plane. When the exposure is sufficient, the camera will contact the body through a special shoe to send the control command to the control circuit of the flash, cut off the capacitor discharge circuit to flash lamp, turn off the flash, which is guaranteed not to excessive exposure. The TTL flash control is similar to the cameras measured light mode. When the lens is replaced, the cameras metering system can still measure the changing light, so the control of the flash lamp is more accurate. The signal flow chart of TTL flash control is shown in figure 5-6. In TTL flash control mode, as long as the object is in the flash range, operators do not need to consider the relationship between flash index and aperture coefficient, can be absorbed in shot composition, so the way has become a standard feature in the high-end camera. In the TTL flash control mode, although the background of the image is reflected on the film plane, the metering element also reflects the brightness. But the most important thing is that in this way before the flash does not automatically control the flash output until the flash metering element receives the amount, reflecting after to flash control, so it is a kind of passive control method. Because of its principle limitations, the TTL flash control is not perfect. As we mentioned in the third chapter on the photometric system, met
