Q&A
Q
Is multi-flash shooting possible in the TTL AUTO mode?
A
No, it is not possible.
Q
When are test flash activation and auto checking effective?
A
Checking the optimum flash activation based on the AUTO CHECK lamp is particularly effec-
tive in bounce flash (in AUTO modes only).
Q
What will happen if the electronic flash is activated simultaneously with the camera’s built-in
flash?
A
Both flashes emit light simultaneously and the optimum exposure is determined according to
the combined total light intensity (provided that the camera is in the P or A shooting mode).
Q
Why does the electronic flash get hot after successive firing?
A
The batteries generate heat when flash firing is repeated successively. In this case, use the
electronic flash at intervals until the flash emission section and batteries cool down.
Q
Can the electronic flash be used with an Olympus L series 35 mm film camera?
A
No, it cannot be used.
Q
Why can’t I mount the electronic flash on the camera?
A
The electronic flash cannot be mounted if the lock pin is in the out position. If this is the case,
turn the lock ring all the way in the opposite direction to [
←
LOCK] until it stops. Once the lock
pin is in the in position, you can mount the electronic flash on the camera (see page 10).
Q
Why doesn’t the control mode change when I press the MODE button?
A
When the electronic flash is connected to certain types of communication-capable camera,
the flash control mode can only be controlled from the camera.
Q
What is the recommended white balance setting for the camera when using the flash?
A
The auto white balance mode is recommended. If you use the manual white balance mode,
set the color temperature to 5500K. Note that the color temperature varies depending on the
flash shooting conditions.
