manual abstract
• When you set to burst mode or auto bracket, only 1 picture is taken for every flash firing. • The flash indication becomes red when pressing the shutter button halfway. • When the flash/access indication 2 and the flash indication blink red, you cannot take a picture even when you press the shutter button fully. • If the battery indicator is less than or setting [ECONOMY] to [ON], the LCD monitor turns off during charging the flash. • When using the flash, do not let subjects get too close to the flash. The shape or color of subjects may be changed because of the heat and light of the flash. • When taking a picture with the flash, the white balance will be automatically adjusted (for AUTO and Halogen mode), but the white balance may not be properly adjusted when the Photo Flash is insufficient. • When taking a picture with the flash after setting the white balance manually, the white balance may not be properly adjusted. We recommend setting the white balance to [AUTO] when using the flash.
