USING 60 S (1/60 SEC.) When using a non-dedicated flash unit (having X contact only), set the mode selector dial at 60 $ . This setting of 1/60 sec. can be used for ordinary picture-taking, but in that case, you cannot make sure of correct exposure through the viewfinder. As illustrated, align "60" on the dial with the red-line index. • When using a clip-on type flash, set the lens aperture to the appropriate f-stop according to the camera-to-subject distance or the program of the flash. (Refer to the instructions that accompany the flash unit.) • Flash units using a sync cord cannot be used on this camera. • When the lens is locked in A, the 60 $ setting cannot be used, nor can the shutter be released even with the shutter button depressed. With the Pentax dedicated flashes described on page 26, even when the lens is A-locked, the dedicated functions work, enabling you to take flash photos. If the flash is not fully charged, the shutter cannot be released. •32 • cas • .\\ • NOD
