For correct flash exposures, the subject must be within the flash range. The flash range can be
extended by changing the camera sensitivity. When the camera sensitivity is set to auto, the ISO is
set between ISO 100 and 200.
The flash range is measured from the CCD. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the
same at the lens’ wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.
To extend the versatility of the camera, an accessory flash unit (sold separately) can be used. Always
remove the accessory flash when the camera is not in use, and replace the accessory-shoe cap to
protect the contacts.
ATTACHING A MINOLTA ACCESSORY FLASH UNIT
Slide the accessory-shoe cap off as shown. Mount the
flash unit on the accessory shoe by sliding it forward until
it stops.
