USING EXTERNAL FLASH

Red-eye Reduction Flash Function

The red-eye reduction flash function with an external flash attached can also be used depending on what type of an external flash is attached, and it may have any restrictions for usage. See pages 116 and 117 for more details.

Trailing-Shutter-Curtain Sync Flash

When using the built-in flash and the external flash simultaneously, the trailing-shutter-curtain-flash function for the built-in flash also operates when the external flash is set to the trailing-shutter-curtain flash function. Before shooting, confirm that both flash units are fully charged.

Multi-burst Flash with the Pentax Dedicated Flash

When using more than one external flash, make sure that they are of the same type or a combination of type B and type C or type C and type D as described on pages 116 and 117. Refer to the second illustration on page 124. The built-in flash can be operated with any type of Pentax TTL dedicated flash unit 2.
