Using the Flash

You can connect an external flash to the
camera with a sync cord by using the X-sync
socket.
Remove the Sync socket 2P cap and
connect a sync cord to the X-sync socket.
X-sync Socket
The use of high-voltage or high-current external flashes may cause a camera
breakdown.
Flashes with reversed polarity (the center of the sync plug is minus) cannot
be used due to the risk of damaging the camera or flash.
When a sync cord is connected to the X-sync socket, linked functions will not
work.
To prevent vignetting caused from Trailing Curtain Sync, it is recommended
to take a test shot using a shutter speed one level slower than the flash sync
speed.
The contact of the X-sync socket is not dust-proof and water-resistant. Attach
the provided Sync socket 2P cap when not in use.
