D Before Using the Remote Control Before using the remote control for the first time, remove the clear plastic battery-insulator sheet. D Using the Built-in Flash Before taking a photograph with the flash in P, S, A, M, or 0 modes, press the M button to raise the flash and wait for the M indicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 143). Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised while remote control mode is in effect or after the selftimer has started. If the flash is required, the camera will only respond to the ML-L3 shutterrelease button once the flash has charged. In auto or scene modes in which the flash pops up automatically, the flash will begin charging when remote mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically pop up and fire when required. Note that only one photograph will be taken when the flash fires, regardless of the number of exposures selected for Custom Setting c3 (Self-timer; 0 214). In flash modes that support red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp will light for about one second before the shutter is released. In delayed remote mode, the self-timer lamp will light for two seconds, followed by the red-eye reduction lamp which light for one second before the shutter is released. A Focusing in Remote Control Mode k The camera will not adjust focus in remote mirror-up mode or when continuous-servo autofocus is selected; note however that if any autofocus mode is selected, you can focus by pressing the camera shutter-release button halfway before shooting (pressing the button all the way down will not release the shutter). If auto- or single-servo autofocus is selected or the camera is in live view in delayed or quick-response remote mode, the camera will automatically adjust focus before shooting; if the camera is unable to focus in viewfinder photography, it will return to stand-by without releasing the shutter. A Remote Mirror-up Mode Metering is not performed in remote mirror-up mode. Photos can not be framed in the viewfinder while the mirror is raised. AA In self-timer mode, a shutter speed of A is equivalent to approximately ¼ s.
