Hi
Ive just bought an Ike U/W light meter for taking accurate exposure readings for flash photography. The (short) manual says that I need to set the camera's flash sync speed in the meter, then measure the flash, and I will get the right f-stop. It says "shutter speed cannot be changed in this mode". So am I stuck with using the flash sync speed as my shutter speed? (1/200 in this case, a Nikon D80). Can I dial in 1/125 as my flash sync speed if that's the shutter speed I want to shoot with? Or, if I stick with dialling in 1/200 as the sync speed and then get f16 as the reading, can I go to f8 at 1/125?
It may not be much if an issue, as I'm sure I can use 1/200 but I have used 1/125 in the past and I dont want to have to open my lens up too much in case it starts to get soft.
As ever, any advice from those more knowledgeable very very welcome.
