you fire the modeling flash 10 consecutive times, allow at least 10 minutes’ break for the camera flash.
Auto Focus Assist Beam
In poorly-lit or low-contrast shooting environments, the built-in auto focus assist beam will automatically light on to
make it easier for autofocus. The beam will light up only when autofocus is difficult and get out as soon as the
autofocus becomes correct.
If you find the auto focus assist beam does not light up, this is because the camera has got a correct autofocus.
