You can take various flash-lit pictures using an extension flash (sold separately ) designed specifically for the Camedia C-2500L.
Both an extension flash and the built-in flash as well as the built-in flash only can be used.
For details about preparation for the built-in flash, flash illumination range, and the flash mode, see "Flash Photography" (P. 20)
in “Taking Pictures”.

MEMO
• This camera is equipped with a cover to protect the hot shoe. When
you want to use an exclusive extension flash, remove the cover. After
removing the cover, keep it in a safe place so that it doesn't get lost.
After removing the exclusive extension flash, reattach the cover.
• When you connect the extension flash,it may fire by mistake accord-
ing to its condition.
• With close-up shots (1.5 m (4.9 ft.) or less), it is recommended to
use only the built-in flash to prevent glare and vignetting.
• In the super macro mode, you can obtain fill-in flash by setting the
exclusive extension flash’s power to ON. However, note that the pres-
ence of the lens may produce a shadow in the picture or make cor-
rect brightness control impossible. If you do not want light supplied
by the flash, set the exclusive extension flash to OFF.

Using Extension Flash in P / A Mode
The camera automatically detects an attached extension flash. Both an
extension flash and the built-in flash can be used simultaneously.
Using Extension Flash Only
An extension flash lights up further than the built-in flash.
Retract the built-in flash when you use only the exclusive extension flash
in the P / A mode. It works like the built-in flash.
For more information, see "Taking Flash-Lit Pictures".

NOTE
Be careful of the following points when using the extension flash with
the Camedia C-2500L.
• Close-up shots can be overexposed. Either adjust the extension flash
to the camera's exposure or use the camera's built-in flash.
• When using both the extension flash and the built-in flash, the built-in
flash provides supplementary lighting only. Therefore, if the extension
flash does not render enough illumination, images may come out
underexposed.
• When you use the extension flash other than the FL-40, images will
change according to surrounding conditions, the type of flash and
camera setup. Be aware that Olympus does not guarantee picture
quality when taken with the extension flash other than FL-40.
NOTE
• To override flash emission from the exclusive extension flash, set its
power to OFF.
