CAUTION Notes on using flash

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• If pressing the shutter button while the flash is charging

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(indicator lamp blinking orange), the picture will be

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

taken without the flash (when using [AUTO] and b).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• The flash charging time may increase when the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

batteries are low on charge.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• When taking a picture using the flash, the image may

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

disappear and go dark briefly due to flash charging. The

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

indicator lamp blinks orange during charging.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• The flash fires several times (pre-flashes and the main

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

flash). Do not move the camera until the picture is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

taken.
