The Built-in Flash

For information on the lenses that can be used with the built-in flash, see page 230. Remove
lens hoods to prevent shadows. The flash has a minimum range of 0.6 m (2 ft) and can not
be used in the macro range of zoom lenses with a macro function.

The shutter release may be briefly disabled to protect the flash after it has been used for
several consecutive shots. The flash can be used again after a short pause.
