Using the FL-40 external flash
Various types of flash shooting are possible with the FL-40 external flash,
which can be used either by itself or together with the main flash.
If the FL-40 is used, flash mode and exposure compensation will be detected
automatically by the camera, allowing the main flash and external flash to
function together.
Using the two flashes together allows for more sophisticated lighting, such as
catch lighting.
The FL-40 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).
