Using the Built-in Flash
Before taking a photograph with the flash in manual pop-up modes
(

M
(
Y
) button to raise the flash and wait for the
M
indicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (

interrupted if the flash is raised after the shutter-release button on the
ML-L3 is pressed. If the flash is required, the camera will only respond
to the ML-L3 shutter-release button once the flash has charged. In
auto pop-up modes, the flash will begin charging when a remote
control mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically
pop up and fire when required.
