Flash shooting

4 Use the super control panel to set the flash mode and other settings for each

group.

5 Select a flash mode.

• Red-eye reduction flash is not possible in RC mode.

6 Press the # button to raise the built-in flash.

7 After shooting preparations are completed, take some test shots to check the

flash operation and images.

8 Begin shooting while checking the charging completed indications of the camera

and flash.

x Notes

• Although there is no limit to the number of wireless flashes you can use, it is recommended

that each group have no more than three flashes to prevent flash malfunction due to mutual

interference.

• In RC mode, the built-in flash is used to control the wireless flash. The built-in flash cannot be

used for flash shooting in this mode.

• For 2nd curtain synchronization, set the shutter speed and anti-shock settings to within 4

seconds. Wireless flash shooting may not operate properly when using a slower shutter

speed or anti-shock setting.

You cannot use the camera to adjust the amount of light emitted from a commercially

available flash except for a flash specified for use with this camera. To use a commercially

available flash, connect it to the hot shoe. Set the camera’s shooting mode to M.

Non-specified commercial flashes

1) Exposures when using a flash require that adjustments be made on the flash. If a flash is

used in the auto mode, match it with the f-number and ISO sensitivity settings on the

camera.

2) Even if the flash auto f-number and ISO sensitivity are set the same as on the camera, the

correct exposure may not be obtained depending on the shooting conditions. In such a

case, adjust the auto f-number or ISO on the flash or calculate the distance in the manual

mode.

3) Use a flash with an illumination angle that matches the focal length of the lens. The focal

length of the lens for 35 mm film is approximately twice as long as the focal length of the

lenses designed for this camera.

4) Do not use a flash unit or other accessory TTL flash that has additional communication

functions other than the specified flashes, since it may not only fail to function normally,

but may also cause damage to the camera’s circuitry.
