For close subjects, the subject should be at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away

If the lens has a hood attached or you are too close to the subject, the
bottom of the picture might look dark due to the obstructed flash. If you
use a telephoto lens or a fast lens and the built-in flash is still partially
obstructed, use an EX-series Speedlite (sold separately).
