AExiting Remote Control Mode

Remote control mode is cancelled automatically if no photograph is taken before the time selected for Custom Setting c4 (Remote on duration (ML-L3), 0 254). Remote control mode will also be cancelled if the camera is turned off, a two-button reset is performed (0 110), or shooting options are reset using Reset shooting menu.

AUsing the Built-in Flash

Before taking a photograph with the flash in manual pop-up modes (0 95), press the M (Y) button to raise the flash and wait for the M indicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 44). Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised after the shutter-release button on the ML-L3 is pressed. If the flash is required, the camera will only respond to the ML-L3 shutter-release button once the flash has charged. In auto pop-up modes, the flash will begin charging when a remote control mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically pop up and fire when required.

AWireless Remote Controllers

Remote control is also available with various combinations of WR-R10, WR-T10, and WR-1 wireless remote controllers (0 332), when the shutter-release buttons on the wireless remote controllers perform the same functions as the camera shutter-release button. For more information, see the manual provided with the remote controllers.
