MEMO
The built-in flash does not pop up even if the flash pop-up button is
pressed with the flash mode is set to (Flash OFF).
When the flash pop-up button is pressed, disappears and
appears on the LCD panel, which indicates the flash always fires
regardless of the light conditions.
The shutter cannot be released until the flash is fully charged.
To enable shutter release before the flash is charged, set custom
function number [CF7] to [2]. See pages 134 and 138.
Do not use a lens hood with the built-in flash as it may obstruct the
path of the light coming from the flash, causing vignetting in the picture
corners.
With the built-in flash popped up, an external flash cannot be attached
to the hot shoe. If you would like to use an external flash together with
the built-in flash, see the flash connections on page 124.
