Sync Speed

The camera can synchronize with non-Canon compact flash units at up to

1/180 sec. With large studio flash units, the flash duration is longer than

that of a compact flash unit and varies depending on the model. Before

shooting, confirm that flash is synced correctly at approx. 1/60–1/30 sec.

o

If the camera is used with a flash unit or flash accessory dedicated to another

camera brand, the camera not only may not operate properly, but malfunction

may result.

o

Do not attach a high-voltage flash unit to the camera’s hot shoe. It may not be

fired.
