Set the flash compensation value by turning the e-dial in the [Flash Mode]
screen.
You can set to enable shooting while the flash is being charged.
Set [On] for [14. Release when Charging] in the [A Custom Setting 2]
menu (p.78). Pictures cannot be taken while the flash is charging by
default.
If the maximum flash output is exceeded when corrected to the plus (+) side,
no compensation will be effective.
Compensating to the minus (–) side may not affect the image if the subject is
too close, aperture is low or sensitivity is high.
The flash compensation is also effective for external flash units which support
P-TTL auto flash mode.
