Various types of flash shooting are possible with the Olympus FL series external
flashes. The external flash can be used either by itself or together with the built-in
flash.
The external flash detects the flash mode and exposure compensation automatically
and functions just like the built-in flash. The external flash can be mounted on the
camera by attaching it to the hot shoe on the top of the camera, or by using the
exclusive FL-BK01 flash bracket (optional) and FL-CB02 bracket cable (optional).
This chapter explains how to use the FL-20 when attached to the hot shoe.
