External ash shooting
With this camera, you can use one of the separately sold external ash units to
achieve a ash suited to your needs. The external ashes communicate with the
camera, allowing you to control the camera's ash modes with various available
ash control modes, such as TTL-AUTO and Super FP ash.
An external ash unit speci ed for use with this camera can be mounted on the
camera by attaching it to the camera's hot shoe. You can also attach the ash to
the ash bracket on the camera using the bracket cable (optional). Refer to the
documentation provided with the external ash units as well.
