Flash Adjustment

The flash intensity can be increased or decreased by 2 steps. For details, see “Flash Adjustment”

(☞ pg. 31).

NOTES:

●While the flash is charging, the LCD monitor turns off to save power. This is not a malfunction. Once the flash is charged after a few seconds, the LCD monitor turns on again.

●When the batteries are nearly exhausted during flash shooting, the power may turn off.

●During Self-Recording, the flash is not charged and does not emit light.

●Since flash shooting consumes a large amount of battery power, it is recommended to keep a spare set of batteries nearby when you are planning to take many photographs with the flash.

●When battery power weakens, the time it takes for the Flash Lamp to light steadily increases, and flash charging may be aborted. Before pressing the Shutter Release Button, make sure the Flash Lamp stays lit.
