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.
