External ﬂ ash units designated for use with this camera

With this camera, you can use one of the separately sold external ﬂ ash units to

achieve a ﬂ ash suited to your needs. The external ﬂ ashes communicate with the

control modes, such as TTL-AUTO and Super FP ﬂ ash. An external ﬂ ash unit speciﬁ ed

for use with this camera can be mounted on the camera by attaching it to the camera’s

hot shoe. You can also attach the ﬂ ash to the ﬂ ash bracket on the camera using the

bracket cable (optional). Refer to the documentation provided with the external ﬂ ash

units as well.

The upper limit of the shutter speed is 1/250 sec. when using a ﬂ ash.
