• Do not use the Multi Interface Shoe with a commercially available flash that

applies voltage of 250 V or more or has the reverse polarity of the camera.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.

• You can use a flash of the reverse polarity with the Sync Terminal. Please use

a flash with a sync voltage of 400 V or less.

• When shooting with the flash and the zoom is set to W, the shadow of the

lens may appear on the screen, depending on the shooting conditions. If this
happens, shoot away from the subject or set the zoom to T and shoot with
the flash again.

• The corners of a recorded image may be shaded, depending on the lens.

• When shooting with an external flash, light and dark stripes may appear on

the image if the shutter speed is set to faster than 1/4000 seconds. If this
occurs, Sony recommends shooting in the manual flash mode and setting the
flash level to 1/2 or higher.

• For details on compatible accessories for the Multi Interface Shoe, visit the

Sony website, or consult your Sony dealer or local authorized Sony service
facility.

 Flash Off: The flash does not operate.

 Autoflash: The flash works in dark environments or when shooting

towards bright light.

 Fill-flash: The flash works every time you trigger the shutter.

 Slow Sync.: The flash works every time you trigger the shutter. Slow

sync shooting allows you to shoot a clear image of both the subject
and the background by slowing the shutter speed.

 Rear Sync.: The flash works right before the exposure is completed

every time you trigger the shutter. Rear sync shooting allows you to
shoot a natural image of the trail of a moving subject such as a moving
car or a walking person.
