Flash Photography Using The Built-In Flash Unit - Leica X-U 113 Instructions Manual

FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
EN
Your Leica X-U comes with a flash unit integrated into the front
housing of the lens.
• The display for the activated flash mode appears in white. The flash
mode will blink red if the flash unit is not fully charged and
therefore not ready.

Notes:
• It is not possible to use an external flash, or only with a remote
flash unit that allow wireless triggering.
• A metering flash is triggered before the main flash to determine
flash exposure.
• Serial exposures and automatic bracketing with flash are not
available. For these, the flash display will not appear and no flash
will be triggered.
• We recommend using the integrated flash unit underwater only for
depths up to 5m/16ft due to the limited flash range. In greater
depths, the use of an external, underwater-capable flash unit with a
wireless connection to the camera is recommended that can be
triggered by the in-built camera flash (available from other
manufacturers at specialist retailers).
