USING BUILT-IN FLASH Notes on using built-in flash • Do not touch the flash when it is firing; normal operation can cause it to heat up. • Never fire the flash more than 20 consecutive times at intervals of 5 sec. or shorter. This may impair flash performance. After each continuous firing, let the flash rest at least 10 minutes before firing again. When you continuously fire the flash , the camera's handgrip may become hot; this is normal. Continuous firing will result in a longer interval before the ready-light comes on because it takes longer for the flash to recharge automatically. I - Ie'S FS.b 1 When subject brightness is insufficient, the ready-light ~ blinks inside the viewfinder when you lightly press the shutter release button to activate the exposure meter. Press the flash lock-release to release and activate the builtin flash. You can use the built-in flash anytime, regard-less of ambient lighting. For example, if your subject is backlit, you can use the built-in flash to illuminate your subject and fill in shadows. • When the built-in flash is activated, an accessory Speedlight will not fire. When using a Speedlight, keep the built-in flash in the locked-down position. • For usable lenses, see page 55. 51
