You can combine two or more external flashes (AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ or
AF200FG) or you can use two or more external flashes in combination with
the built-in flash. You can use the extension cord connection terminal on
the flash to connect the AF540FGZ. You can connect AF360FGZ or
AF200FG units as shown in the illustration below. Connect an external
flash and the Hot Shoe Adapter F (optional) to the Off-Camera Shoe
Adapter F (optional) and then connect another Off-Camera Shoe Adapter
F with external flash using the Extension Cord F5P (optional).
Refer to the manual of the external flash for details.

When combining two or more external flashes

Multiple Flash Shooting Using Extension

Cords

• Do not combine with accessories that have a different number of contacts

such as a Hot Shoe Grip as a malfunction may occur.

• Combining with flashes from other manufacturers may cause equipment

breakdown. We recommend using the AF540FGZ, AF360FGZ or AF200FG.

When using multiple external flashes or using an external flash with the built-in
flash, P-TTL is used for flash control.
