[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 515132, member: 12496"] They do add to a total flash compensation, each in its amount. The result and the Exif will show the total. On Nikons, the Exposure Compensation also adds to the Flash compensation (and EC also affects the ambient individually). For example, if you wanted -1 EV ambient, but were also using flash, you might set -1 EV EC, and then +1 EV FC to bring the flash back up to zero. Pros and cons either way (of Not adding EC to FC), but this method allows changing the total exposure of both in one adjustment. Some later Nikons have a menu to allow either way. [/QUOTE]
