OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
This accessory allows the electronic flash to be used as a
grip-on type flash powered from four C (R14) alkaline dry cell
batteries.
Using these batteries together with the electronic flash bat-
teries makes it possible to charge the flash at a higher speed
and increase the available flash emission count.
●External power supply

(High Voltage Pack HV-1, Ni-MH Battery Pack BN-1, and AC Adapter AC-2)
The BN-1 Ni-MH battery pack incorporated in this accessory
makes it possible to charge the flash at a higher speed and
increase the available flash emission count.
Batteries
* The flash emission interval and count data were obtained from in-house tests at Olympus.
* The flash emission interval data represents the performance of fresh batteries. The figures increase as the
batteries are depleted.
* The flash emission interval data refers to the values obtained with MANUAL flashing at a 1/1 light intensity ratio.
The figure decreases when the light intensity is lower.
