Setting up
• For information about how to connect a slave unit to an external flash, refer to the
instructions included with the slave unit.
• Please set the external flash unit to self-adjustment mode, and set the unit’s ISO to
100. (The camera’s ISO is automatically set to 100 when you enable external flash.)
Refer to the external flash unit’s instructions for details.
The external flash intensity is set by the external unit itself, and is not controlled by the
camera. Check the results after shooting. If the exposure is inappropriate, adjust the
external flash unit’s f-stop (aperture setting) and try again.
Note: ISO is a standard measure of photographic film’s sensitivity to light. Higher values indicate
greater sensitivity—so films with higher ISOs can shoot under lower light conditions. When you
are not using external flash, the camera automatically adjusts the ISO to a value from 100 to 400
depending on the brightness of the subject.
