Lens Hood

Flare is non-image forming light that degrades image quality. A lens hood improves image quality by reducing flare.

• Remove the lens hood before using the camera’s built-in flash.

Fit the lens hood into the mount at

the end of the lens barrel, then

turn the hood clockwise until it

clicks.

• To store the hood, reverse it, attach it to the

lens as described above, then replace the

lens cap.

Accessory Flashes

When using an accessory flash, the flash mode can be selected using the camera or the flash.

All Minolta i, si, and HS, HS(D) series flash units, the Macro Twin Flash 2400, the Macro Ring Flash 1200, and the Vectis SF-1 flash are compatible with this camera.

The Flash Shoe Adapter FS-1100 is required to mount AF series flash units (4000AF, 2800AF, 1800AF, and Macro flash 1200AF).

When the FS-1100 is used:

The flash will fire every time the shutter is released.

The AF illuminator will not activate.

The built-in flash is set to fill flash when the accessory flash is removed.

X-series flashes and flashes sold by other manufacturers cannot be used with this camera.
