Various shooting functions Flash shooting Non-specified commercial flashes Before selecting a non-specified commercial flash, be sure to read the following information carefully to determine whether or not it can be used with this camera. (1) Exposures when using a flash require that adjustments be made on the flash. If a flash is used in the auto mode, match it with the F value and ISO sensitivity settings on the camera. (2) Even if the auto F value and ISO sensitivity of the flash are set to the same conditions as those on the camera, the correct exposure may not obtained 4 depending on the shooting conditions. In such a case, adjust the auto F value or ISO on the flash or calculate the distance in the manual mode. (Exposure compensation on the camera cannot be used when shooting with the flash.) (3) Use a flash with an illumination angle that matches the focal length of the lens. The focal length of the lens for 35 mm film is approximately twice as long as the focal length of the lenses designed for this camera. (4) Do not use a flash unit or other accessory TTL flash that has additional communications functions other than the specified flashes, since it may not only fail to function normally, but may also cause damage to the camera's circuitry. 65
