TURNING THE FLASH ON AND OFF/ FILM
When the flash turns on, the flash-on lamp
will glow.
With the flash on, pressing the flash on/off
button will turn the flash off and flash-off
lamp will glow.
• The lamp will go out after a little more than
10 seconds.
Turn the flash on by pressing the flash
on/off button.
• When the flash is attached and you operate your camera, power is
supplied automatically to the flash, and the lamp will glow. (auto power
on). Power is switched off and lamps go out automatically to save bat-
teries when the camera or flash is not used for four minutes (auto
power off).
• Custom settings may be used to change the time of auto power off, or
to disable auto power off (p. 52).
Do not use high-speed film (rating in excess of ISO 1000) with TTL
direct metering (TTLlamp will be on, see page 35). Use of such film
increases the exposure error.
• The low-speed film limit is the same as that for the films specified for
the camera. See the camera manual for details.
