•Some commercial external flashes have synchro terminals with high-voltage or reversed 
polarity. Using such extra flashes may cause a malfunction or the camera may not operate 
normally.
•If you use commercially available external flashes with communication functions other than the 
dedicated one, they may not operate normally or they may be damaged. Do not use them.
•Even if the external flash is turned off, the ca mera may enter the external flash mode when the 
external flash is attached. When you are not using the external flash, detach it.

sensitivity to match the settings on the camera.

same aperture value and ISO sensitivity on the external flash. (The exposure cannot be 
compensated adequately due to the change on the aperture value in Shutter-Priority AE 
Mode and the external flash cannot control the light adequately in Program AE Mode 
because the aperture value cannot be fixed.)
