• Flashes with the reversed polarity (the center contact on the
hot shoe is minus) cannot be used due to the risk of damaging
the camera and/or flash.
• Do not combine with accessories that have a different
number of contacts, such as Hot Shoe Grip, as a malfunction
may occur.
• Combining with flashes from other manufacturers may cause
equipment breakdown.

connecting the flash units with a cord. In this case, set the
camera channel on the external flashes.
• You can connect an external flash
to the camera with a sync cord by
using the X-sync socket. Remove
the Sync socket 2P cap to connect
a sync cord to the X-sync socket.
