Group

• Select the ﬂ ash control

mode and adjust the ﬂ ash

intensity separately for

each group. For MANUAL,

select the ﬂ ash intensity.

Normal ﬂ ash/Super FP ﬂ ash

• Switch between normal

ﬂ ash and Super FP ﬂ ash.

Communication light level

• Set the communication

light level to [HI], [MID],

or [LO].

Channel

• Set the communication

channel to the same

channel used on the ﬂ ash.

Adjust settings for the

camera ﬂ ash unit.

Attach the supplied ﬂ ash unit and raise the ﬂ ash head.

• After conﬁ rming that the built-in and remote ﬂ ash units have charged, take a test shot.

 Wireless ﬂ ash control range

Position the wireless ﬂ ash units with their remote sensors facing the camera. The following

illustration shows the approximate ranges at which the ﬂ ash units can be positioned. The

actual control range varies with local conditions.

# Cautions

• We recommend using a single group of up to three remote ﬂ ash units.

• Remote ﬂ ash units cannot be used for second curtain slow synchronization or anti-shock

exposures longer than 4 seconds.

• If the subject is too close to the camera, the control ﬂ ashes emitted by the supplied ﬂ ash

may affect exposure (this effect can be reduced by reducing the output of the supplied

ﬂ ash by, for example, using a diffuser).

• The upper limit of ﬂ ash synchronization timing is 1/160 sec. when using the ﬂ ash in

remote control mode.

Other external ﬂ ash units

Note the following when using a third-party ﬂ ash unit mounted on the camera hot shoe:

• Using obsolete ﬂ ash units that apply currents of more than about 24 V to the camera hot

shoe X-contact will damage the camera.

• Connecting ﬂ ash units with signal contacts that do not conform to Olympus speciﬁ cations

may damage the camera.

• Use only with the camera in shooting mode M at shutter speeds slower than 1/160 s and

at ISO settings other than [Auto].

• Flash control can only be performed by manually setting the ﬂ ash to the ISO sensitivity

and aperture values selected with the camera. Flash brightness can be adjusted by

adjusting either ISO sensitivity or aperture.

• Use a ﬂ ash with an angle of illumination suited to the lens. Angle of illumination is usually

expressed using 35-mm format equivalent focal lengths.
