•When the flash output exceeds its maximum amount, the compensation will not be effective even if the compensation value is set to the plus (+) side.

•Compensating to the minus (-) side may have no effect if the subject is too close, the aperture is set to a large opening, or the set sensitivity is high.

•The flash output compensation is also effective for external flash units which support P-TTL auto flash mode.
