Using the electronic flash with the TTL cable
To attach the Electronic Flash to this Case using TTL cable, connect the hot shoe cable to the camera
and to the hot shoe cable connector on the front lid side of this Case as described below. Note that the
camera’s built-in flash cannot be used when an external electronic flash and case are installed. Be sure
to set the automatic pop-up setting of the camera to OFF so that the builtin flash will not pop up
automatically.
2 Set the automatic pop-up setting of the camera to OFF. The camera’s built-in flash is designed to pop
up automatically when shooting under low light or against backlight in any scene mode other than the
AUTO or underwater modes. This setting change is required to prevent this.
MENU X [Y] X [f] FLASH X [AUTO POP UP]
[OFF]: The built-in flash will not pop up automatically.
3 Switch the electronic flash ON before switching the camera ON.
When using the electronic flash, be sure to turn it ON before turning the camera on.
Otherwise, if the automatic pop-up setting of the camera is ON and the camera is set to a scene mode
other than the AUTO or underwater modes, turning the camera ON before turning the electronic
flash on would cause the camera’s built-in flash to pop up automatically. Always be sure to turn the
electronic flash ON before turning the camera ON.
1 Before loading the camera in the Case, connect the
hot shoe cable’s connector to the Case’s hot shoe
cable connector.
4 Load the camera in the Case, and then
connect the hot shoe cable to the
camera.
CAUTION:
• For details on camera function setup, refer to the camera’s instruction manual.
• If the camera’s built-in flash pops up while the hot shoe cable is connected to the camera, it will interfere
with the hot shoe cable, either disconnecting it or causing a connection failure.
• When using a slave-type underwater flash from a non-Olympus manufacturer, pop the camera’s built-in
flash up before loading it in the Case.
• Once the camera has been loaded in the Case and the Case has been sealed by closing the slide lock and
open/close dial it is no longer possible to pop up or retract the camera’s built-in flash.
• When using an optional electronic flash with underwater case, a bracket is required to attach the electronic
flash case to this Case.
