DBefore Using the ML-L3 Remote Control
Before using the ML-L3 for the first time, remove the clear plastic battery-insulator sheet.
DRemote Control Photography
Note that the shutter may not respond to the ML-L3 remote control if there is a bright light source behind the camera.
In $—quick response (ML-L3) —and %—delayed release (ML-L3)— release modes, the camera responds only to the shutter-release button on the ML-L3 remote control.
AUsing the Built-in Flash
To use the flash, slide the flash pop-up control to raise the flash before shooting. The flash will not fire if it is raised while the self-timer or delayed remote release timer is counting down. Note that when the flash is used in self-timer mode, only one photograph will be taken when the flash fires, regardless of the number of exposures selected for Self- timer in the setup menu (0 188). In remote control modes, the flash begins charging when remote control mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically fire when required. The camera will only
k respond to the ML-L3 shutter-release button once the flash has charged. In flash modes that support red-eye reduction, shutter release will be delayed for about a second to allow red-eye reduction to take effect.
