Notes on wireless flash

You cannot use a flash meter or color meter in wireless flash mode because the camera’s built-in pre-flash goes off.

The zoom position for the HVL-F42AM is automatically set to 24 mm. A zoom position other than 24 mm is not recommended.

If another wireless flash is being used nearby, you can change the channel to “CH1” or “CH2” in the custom settings to prevent interference (page 44).

When photographing with the wireless flash, the flash unit may in rare cases go off by mistake due to ambient static electricity or electromagnetic noise.

When the flash is not in use, select the Flash-OFF lamp [ ] using the MODE button.
