SYSTEM ACCESSORIES
Minolta Program Flash 3600HS(D), Program Flash 5600HS(D), Macro Ring Flash 1200, and
Macro Twin Flash 2400 are compatible with this camera. ADI flash metering (p. 75) will work
with both program flashes attached to the accessory shoe. The use of other flash units is not
recommended.
With the Program Flash units, the flash-metering mode will automatically switch to pre-flash TTL
when the bounce-flash function is used, or the flashes are connected to the camera with an off-
camera cable. Pre-flash TTL (p. 75) automatically activates when using the macro flash units.
When using the Program Flashes, if the flash illumination is uneven at the camera’s wide-angle
setting, attach the wide-angle adaptor to the flash units. With the 3600 HS(D), also change the
flash metering mode to pre-flash TTL. When the auto-zoom function is used with the Program
Flashes, the flashes zoom setting will be wider than the lens setting.
