actual flash is emitted.

•Even if a different lens iris (F) is used, flash at optimum
exposure is also available provided that it falls within the
light control range of the flash.
•Even if a different lens iris (F) Is used, optimum flash ex-
posure is also available provided that it falls within the light
control range of the flash in use.
• The flash’s light control range varies according to the lens
and shooting distance. See page 42 for details.
2. When flash activation has been performed correctly, the
AUTO CHECK lamp blinks for about 5 seconds after the
shutter is released. If the lamp does not blink, the expo-
sure may be incorrect. In this case, you will need to adjust
shooting settings such as the lens iris (F).

The light intensity adjustment must be set to ON in the Cus-

the following steps.
(This selection is also possible with dial A.)
0 → +0.3 → +0.7 → +1.0 ... +3.0

the value is other than 0.
