Attaching the Flash Connection for External Strobes

When using an external
strobe, connect the
housing hotshoe connector.
Slide the connector into the
hotshoe mount on the
camera from the back of
the camera as shown.
Slide the connector forward
until it stops. Due to limited
clearance between the
camera hotshoe mount and
the housing back, the
hotshoe connector should
be attached before the
camera is secured with the
mounting bolt. NOTE: The camera's built-in flash is not accessible in the
housing.
