Using Other Flash Units
The Canonet G-III 17 has both a direct contact
accessory shoe and conventional flash socket.
Automatic flash photography is possible with
flash bulbs and electronic flash units other
than the Canolite D.
Insert the flash into the accessory shoe and
connect its cord if it is not a cordless unit.
Three guide numbers are engraved in blue on
the aperture ring. They are for ASA 100 film
and distance in meters. For conversion to
ASA 25 and feet see the conversion table
below. With flash bulbs, set the shutter speed
to 1/30 sec. Any speed may be used with
electronic flash units.
