If you press the shutter button after selecting the Auto, Fill-in, Slow
sychro flash, the first flash fires to check the shooting condition (Flash
range and Power ratio of flash).
Do not move the camera until the second flash fires.
Using the flash frequently will reduce the life of the battery.
Under normal operating conditions the charging time for the flash is
usually less than 5 seconds. If the battery is weak, the charging time
will be longer.
Take photographs within the flash range.
The image quality is not guaranteed if the subject is too close or
highly reflective.
When taking an image in poorly lit conditions with the flash, there
may sometimes be a white speck in the captured image.
The speck is caused by the reflection of the flash light from the
atmospheric dust. It is not a camera malfunction.
