Note
This cannot be used simultaneously with the Optional Live Viewfinder.
You can set the aperture value, the shutter speed and the ISO sensitivity on the camera even
when attaching the external flash.
Some commercial external flashes have synchro terminals with high-voltage or reversed
polarity. Using such extra flashes may cause a malfunction or the camera may not operate
normally.
If you use commercially available external flashes with communication functions other than the
dedicated one, they may not operate normally or they may be damaged. Do not use them.
Even if the external flash is turned off, the camera may enter the external flash mode when the
external flash is attached. When you are not using the external flash, detach it.
Do not open the built-in flash when an external flash is attached.
The camera will become unstable when attaching the external flash, it is recommended to use
a tripod when taking picture.
Detach the external flash when carrying the camera.
When attaching the external flash, do not hold only the external flash because it may detach
from the camera.
If you use the external flash when the White Balance is set to [ ] finely adjust the White
Balance depending on the picture quality. (P106)
If you record at close range with a wide angle, light from the flash may be blocked by the lens,
darkening the lower part of the screen.
Read the operating instructions of the external flash for details.
The MC protector is a transparent filter which affects neither the colors nor the amount of
light, so it can always be used to protect the camera’s lens.
The ND filter reduces the amount of light to approximately 1/8th (equal to adjusting the
aperture value 3 increments) without affecting the color balance.
PL filter will suppress the reflected light from a metal or non spherical surfaces (flat
non-metallic surfaces, water vapour or invisible particles in the air), making it possible to
take a picture with enhanced contrast.
Note
When using the interchangeable lens (H-PS14042), turn the power switch [OFF] and ensure
the lens barrel is retracted before attaching or removing a filter.
Do not attach multiple filters at the same time.
You can attach the lens cap or the lens hood when the filter is attached.
Accessories other than filters, such as conversion lenses, cannot be mounted. It may cause
malfunction. (As of
October 2011)
Refer to the instructions for each filter for details.
