Flash Adjustment
The flash intensity can be increased or decreased by
2 steps. For details, see “Flash Adjustment”
(Z pg. 29).
NOTES:
●
While the flash is charging, the LCD monitor turns
off to save power. This is not a malfunction. Once
the flash is charged after a few seconds, the LCD
monitor turns on again.
●
When the batteries are nearly exhausted during
flash shooting, the power may turn off.
●
During Self-Recording, the flash is not charged
and does not emit light.
●
Since flash shooting consumes a large amount of
battery power, it is recommended to keep a spare
set of batteries nearby when you are planning to
take many photographs with the flash.
●
When battery power weakens, the time it takes for
the Flash Lamp to light steadily increases, and
flash charging may be aborted. Before pressing
the Shutter Release Button, make sure the Flash
Lamp stays lit.
