CAUTION Notes on using flash
• If the shutter speed is set to a speed faster than 1/1000
sec., the image may appear dark even if the flash is
used.
• If pressing the shutter button while the flash is charging
(indicator lamp blinking orange), the picture will be
taken without the flash (when using AUTO and b).
• The flash charging time may increase when the
batteries are low on charge.
• When taking a picture using the flash, the image may
disappear and go dark briefly due to flash charging. The
indicator lamp blinks orange during charging.
• The flash fires several times (pre-flashes and the main
flash). Do not move the camera until the picture is
taken.
