If the amount of light from the external flash is insufficient (beyond its working range), the resulting pictures may be underexposed. Using commercially available external flashes (SP-350) Provided that the flash can be connected to the hot shoe, a commercially available external flash may be used. For details on compatible commercially available external flashes, refer to P. 167.
