External flash (Cont.)

Turn on the external flash.

● The mode for the external flash is TTL-

AUTO.

● When the shutter button is pressed

halfway, the external flash begins

communicating with the camera and

automatically switches to TTL-AUTO.

● While the camera’s monitor is on, the

camera is communicating with the

external flash and TTL-AUTO is

displayed.

Press the (flash) switch on the

camera to open the main flash.

Press the (flash mode) button to

select the camera’s flash mode (P. 81).

Make sure that the main flash is

closed. If it opens at any time during

shooting, close it.

Press the button to select a flash

mode (P. 81).

● If close-up pictures are overexposed, try using the main flash by itself.

● When the main flash and the FL-40 are used together, the main flash is

used as the compensating light source. This means that if the amount of

light from the FL-40 is insufficient (beyond its working range), the resulting

pictures may be underexposed.

Note

First, do steps 1 and 2 of “Using the FL-40 external flash” (P. 195).
