Using an Externally Mounted Flash (Sold Separately)
High-Power Flash HF-DC1
This flash is used to supplement the camera's built-in flash when the
subject is too far away for proper illumination. Use the following procedures
to affix the camera and High-Power Flash to the supporting bracket. Please
read the instructions accompanying the flash along with this explanation.
• The flash charge time will lengthen as the battery charge gets
weaker. Always set the power/mode switch to [OFF] when you finish
using the flash.
• Be careful not to touch the flash window or sensor windows with your
fingers while the flash is in use.
• In outdoor settings in the daylight, the flash may not detect
illumination from the camera’s built-in flash and may not fire.
• The flash may fire if another flash is being used in close proximity.
• The flash may not fire if there are no reflective items in its metering
field.
• For continuous shooting, although the flash fires for the first shot, it
does not fire for subsequent shots.
• If the battery usage time has considerably diminished, wipe the
battery terminals well with a dry cloth as the terminals may be soiled
with oil from one’s skin or other dirt.
