Taking TTL Auto Flash Pictures

Combined with a TTL auto flash unit, this camera enables you to take auto flash pictures based on a TTL direct light metering

method. When the flash selector is set to AUTO, the flash mark "

" will turn on as soon as the flash is fully charged. After

making sure this mark turns on, depress the Shutter Release. The shutter speed is automatically set to 1/90 sec. in the programmed

TTL auto flash and aperture-priority TTL auto flash modes. If you are working in the manual type TTL auto flash mode, you can

choose any shutter speed in the range of B to 1/90 sec. The automatic flash range is very wide because the aperture is

automatically set in the program mode according to the shooting distance (the same applies to the "TV" mode, too). As soon as the

shutter is tripped, the required amount of flash is automatically adjusted by means of the camera's light receptor to provide correct

exposure. After the flash has fired, the mark "

" will blink for two seconds to tell you that your subject is correctly exposed.4www.butkus.org

· The TTL flash units that operate on a TTL direct light metering method, such as Contax TLA 30, can be used in the same way.

Battery Replacement

If the voltage of the built-in 6-volt lithium battery (2CR5) decreases, the mark " " will appear in the display panel and start

to blink. Even if it starts to blink, the battery probably still has enough power for exposing two or three rolls of film (24

exposures). However, if you take flash pictures with CS-110AF, the battery will be drained quickly, so it is advisable to change

the battery as soon as possible. If you continue to take pictures without changing the battery, the camera will no longer be able to

operate at all as soon as the battery is completely exhausted.

· If the mark " " turns on (without blinking), the backup battery is worn out. In this case, contact your nearest Yashica

Service Station.

· This camera has a safety circuit for protecting its microcomputer from strong static electricity. However, it may fail to operate,

though very rarely, as a result of the operation of this safety circuit. In this case, set the Main Switch at LOCK, press the Program

Reset Button and operate the camera again to take pictures

< Battery Precautions >

· Generally, the battery performance is reduced temporarily by low temperatures. If you are shooting in cold weather, use a new

battery and keep the camera warm before shooting. Even if the battery performance is reduced by low temperature, the battery will

function normally again if the temperature returns to normal.

· Wipe both battery poles clean with a dry cloth before use, because poor contact may result if they are soiled by sweat, oil or

grease.

· If you are going on a long trip, bring a spare battery with you.

· Do not throw a used battery into fire and do not attempt to disassemble, heat or short the battery because it is dangerous.

· Keep the battery out of children's reach. If it is swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

· The camera does not operate if the battery is loaded with its plus (+) and minus (-) sides wrong.
