process is executed between the built-in flash and AF360FGZ
before the flash is fired.

2.The built-in flash discharges a pre-flash (the camera’s flash
mode is transmitted).

flash output is transmitted to the external flash).
If HS (high-speed sync) has also been set, the built-in flash will
discharge another pre-flash to transmit the flash duration time.

MEMO
• You can select how the built-in flash is to be used: either as an
information controller for the external flash, or as a flash to affect the
exposure using the custom function number [CF8]. See pages 134 and
139.
