The FL-40 extension flash (optional) can be used to take various kinds of
flash photographs, either by itself or together with the main flash. To
connect the extension flash to the camera, the exclusive grip (optional)
and bracket cable (optional) are required.

TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS USING THE FL-40
EXTENSION FLASH

If the extension flash is used, the flash mode and exposure
compensation are detected automatically, allowing the main flash and
extension flash to function together.

Using the two flashes together enables more sophisticated lighting, such
as using the extension flash for bounce lighting and the main flash for
front lighting. The default setting is to have the extension flash and main
flash work together.

Mount the FL-40 extension
flash on the exclusive grip,
then fasten it to the camera’s
tripod hole and connect the
exclusive grip and the
camera’s extension flash
connection terminal using the
exclusive bracket cable.
• The extension flash connector

cover on the camera is a screw
type. Unscrew and remove it to
connect the exclusive bracket
cable.
