CCESSORY NOTES

This camera is compatible with the High Speed Sync.
(HSS) function in the Program/Maxxum Flash 5600HS(D)
and 3600HS(D). This allows the camera to use its full
range of shutter speeds up to 1/4000 second. HSS cannot
be used with the 2-second self-timer drive mode nor the
rear sync. flash mode.

Attach a compatible flash unit to the camera. Set the flash
unit to HSS. When the shutter speed exceeds the camera
sync. speed, the High Speed Sync. indicator (H) is
displayed on the monitor and in the viewfinder.

HIGH-SPEED SYNC. (HSS)
