External Flash Units
Flash units can be mounted on the hot shoe or connected
via the sync terminal.
Optional external fl ash units are more powerful than the EF-X8
supplied with the camera. Some support high-speed sync (FP)
and can be used at shutter speeds faster than the sync speed,
while others can function as master fl ash units controlling re-
mote units via optical wireless fl ash control.
Red-Eye Removal
Red-eye removal is available when an option other than OFF is selected for
F FLASH SETTING > RED EYE REMOVAL and a "FACE ON" option is se-
lected for G AF/MF SETTING > FACE/EYE DETECTION SETTING. Red-eye
removal minimizes "red-eye" caused when light from the fl ash is refl ected
from the subject's retinas.
