Advanced Settings
Use of a commercially available flash unit makes it possible to obtain a higher level of
brightness than you get when using the built-in flash alone. An external flash also
makes it possible to extend the effective range of flash photography.
IMPORTANT!
• Some flash performance may be lost when using a ring flash or other type of unit
with a long flash time.
• The aperture value and ISO sensitivity available with some flash units may not
match the values supported by your camera. In such a case, make adjustments in
the aperture setting of the external flash and the camera until proper brightness is
achieved.
• An external flash unit cannot be used with Flash CS (page 48).
. Before Using an External Flash Unit
Be sure to perform the following steps before using an external flash unit.
1. In the REC mode, set the CS dial to t (Single Shot).
2. Press [2] ( ) once.
3. Use [4] and [6] to select ¢ (External Flash) and then press [SET].
Now if you connect an external flash unit it will fire whenever you shoot a
snapshot. The built-in flash will not fire.
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to select ¢ (External Flash) for the flash mode setting when using an
external flash. If you don’t, the built-in flash will pop up during shooting, which can
lead to malfunction if it comes into contact with the external flash unit.
• Note that the brightness of what you see on the monitor screen will be different
from the brightness of the image you record. Make sure you check the settings of
your external flash and of the camera before recording.
