ADVANCED OPERATION

Overview of Flash Function

Using other types of flash

●

Use of non-Pentax flash units may damage the camera. For the best results, use a Pentax dedicated flash unit.

●

Some large studio type flashes may have inverted contacts, and will therefore not fire when attached to a 67

camera.

For further information, contact the flash unit manufacturer. To prevent the view from being vignetted by the second shutter
curtain, it is recommended that you use a shutter speed one step slower than the flash sync speed.

●

The secondary functions do not work when the cord is connected to the X-sync terminal only.
