The flash does not strobe when shooting in
Burst, Exposure Bracket, Twilight, MPEG
movie or Multi Burst mode.

Note that the camera may not function properly
or may malfunction when using a flash
manufactured by another company for a
specific camera (generally a flash with multiple
contact points on the hot shoe), a high-voltage
type flash, or a flash accessory.

When using the built-in flash or using the
optional external flash, set [HOT SHOE] to
[OFF].
