• Set the most appropriate aperture value
according to the guide number of the flash used
and the distance to the subject.
• The flash guide number varies according to the
ISO sensitivity (page 107) of the camera, so be
sure to check the ISO number.
• Note that the camera may not function properly
or may malfunction when using a flash
manufactured by another company for a
specific camera (generally a flash with multiple
contact points on the hot shoe), a high-voltage
type flash, or a flash accessory.
• If you record with [HOT SHOE] set to [OFF] in
the SET UP settings, the built-in flash may rise
up. If this happens, return the built-in flash to
its original position. Depending on the type of
external flash used, you may have to remove
the external flash before returning the built-in
flash to its original position.
