• P-TTL auto is only available with an AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ, AF200FG or
AF160FC flash unit.
• The b will light in the viewfinder when the flash is ready (fully charged).
• For details such as operation method and effective distance, please refer to
the external flash manual.
• The flash does not discharge if the subject is bright enough when the flash
mode is set to C or i. Therefore, it may not be suitable for daylight-sync
shooting.
• Never press the K/i button when any external flash unit is attached to
the camera. The built-in flash will hit the external flash. If you want to use both
at once, set the wireless mode or connect them using the extension cord.
