3Setting the FlashN

With the built-in flash or an EX-series Speedlite compatible with flash function settings, you can use the camera’s menu screen to set flash functions and the external Speedlite’s Custom Functions. If you use an external Speedlite, attach the Speedlite to the camera and turn on the Speedlite before setting the flash functions.
