BASIC OPERATION (PREPARATION) 103 ✍ MEMO • The built-in flash automatically retracts only when the power is turned off. Push down the built-in flash into the camera body when not in use. • The built-in flash does not discharge when not required even though it is been in the up position. • When the built-in flash is used, using the lens hood is NOT recommended as it may obstruct the path of the light coming from the flash, causing vignetting in the picture corners. • Note that the built-in flash automatically pops up in necessary conditions even if an inappropriate lens for flash shooting is used. See page 114 to check the compatibility between the built-in flash and various lenses. • When using an inappropriate F or FA lens, will blink rapidly in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel. See page 110 for details. • If the built-in flash is used continuously, the battery may become warm, but it does not mean that the battery is faulty; it's one of the battery's characteristics. • The shutter cannot be released until the flash is fully charged. • To enable shutter release before the flash is charged, set custom function number [CF7] to [2]. See pages 134 and 138. BASIC OPERATION (SHOOTING) ADVANCED OPERATIONS OTHERS
