Connecting an External Flash with an

Extension Cord

Attach the Hot Shoe Adapter FG (optional) to the camera hot shoe and an Off-Camera Shoe Adapter F (optional) to the bottom of the external flash, and connect these with the Extension Cord F5P (optional) as shown in the illustration below. The Off-Camera Shoe Adapter F can be mounted to your tripod using the tripod screw.

The built-in flash will not discharge if the camera is connected to an external flash.

• Do not combine with accessories that have a different number of contacts, such as a Hot Shoe Grip, as a malfunction may occur.

Combining with flashes from other manufacturers may cause equipment breakdown.
