with a special cable. The signal to activate the flash is given
by the Singleframe Hand Control by short-circuiting the
contacts FLASH-HI and FLASH-LO

When selecting a flash unit make sure that it re-
charges quickly enough. The Singleframe Hand
Control does not check whether the flash is ready
for use.
When exposing with flash, the entire image is
exposed at once. The shutter angle of the camera
may therefore not be smaller than 45
°
.
A minimum exposure time of 1/32s results.
The internal switch of the Singleframe Hand
Control (FLASH-HI, FLASH-LO) may be loaded
with max. 100 mA and 60V).
