With high-speed sync, the faster the shutter speed, the

shorter the effective flash range.

To return to normal flash, press <

> button again. Then

Multi flash mode cannot be set in high-speed sync mode.

Over-temperature protection may be activated after 15

consecutive high-speed sync flashes.

High Speed Sync (FP flash) enables the flash to synchronize with all

camera shutter speeds. This is convenient when you want to use

aperture priority for fill-flash portraits.

Second-Curtain Sync

With a slow shutter speed, you can create a light train following the

subject. The flash fires right before the shutter closes.
