To raise the ash unit into its operative position, slide the ash-unit catch backwards in the
direction of the ash symbol. To return the ash unit into its closed position, push down on
the top of the unit until it clicks back into place. e ash unit is automatically activated when
it is in the operative position and de-activated when returned to its stored position.
e green LED ash symbol blinks in the viewnder when the ash unit is charging and
remains stationary when fully charged. e ash output can also be adjusted for optimum
light balance in ll-ash situations.
! Do not use the integral ash together when another external TTL ash unit is connected
(and used in TTL or A mode)
! For full coverage with the integral ash, use 80 mm or longer lenses.
Using the integral ash:
1) Slide the ash-unit catch backwards in the direction of the ash symbol.
2) Set any required ash compensation (FLASH button / front control wheel / Save).
3) Make an exposure.
4) If the settings were incorrect to match the output of the ash unit, a red triangle appears
in the viewnder along with a ashing green ‘ash’ symbol together with a warning
message on the LCD - ‘Low ash’. The grip LCD will also display a warning message -
‘Low ash measurement’.
5) Conventional measures should then be taken to correct the situation. (That is: move
closer to the main subject, use a larger aperture setting or use a faster lm).
Separate ash unit connection and use
