When using other commercially available external flashes that don’t offer

direct communication with the camera (DC-GX9)

●

It is necessary to set the exposure on the external flash when it is used. When you use an external

flash in Auto Mode, use an external flash that allows you to set the aperture value and ISO

sensitivity to match the same settings on the camera.

●

Set the camera to Aperture-Priority AE Mode or Manual Exposure Mode and then set the same

aperture value and ISO sensitivity on the external flash. (The proper exposure cannot be achieved

because the aperture value changes in Shutter-Priority AE Mode. The light of the external flash

cannot be properly adjusted since the aperture value cannot be fixed in Programme AE Mode.)
