INFORMATION

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 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 normally within 5.5 seconds. If the battery is weak, the charging time will be longer.

During the continuous shot, AEB and movie clip mode, the flash function will not operate.

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 a poorly lit condtion with the flash, there may be a white speck in the captured image. The speck is caused by the reflecting of the flash light from the floating matters. It is not camera malfuction.
