When you open the flash unit again, the camera remembers and restores your last flash setting.

When you are shooting in low-light conditions with the flash turned off, the camera uses slow shutter speeds. Take care to avoid camera shake. Use a tripod or place the camera on a steady surface.

Using an External Flash Unit

You can use an external flash unit when you want additional or specialized lighting. You can use the camera’s built-in flash as well to provide extra fill flash.

NOTE: Use either the Manual (page 17) or Aperture Priority (page 19) shooting modes when using an external flash unit. Automatic shooting (P on the Mode Dial)is not available with an external flash unit.
