Cautions When Using Flash
30
With the built-in flash
Use the built-in flash for subjects at least
0.7 meter away. If the subject is closer
than 0.7 meter, overexposure may result.
The built-in flash can usually be used with
a lens as long as the |
| symbol does not
blink in the camera as a warning.
However, with certain lenses vignetting
may still occur even if there is no blinking
symbol warning. It is also possible for a
lens to trigger the blinking symbol warning,
but still be used with no problem.
For details, see the built-in flash compat-
ibility table on page 31.
With the
, the blinking | | symbol
warning does not appear in the camera
even if the lens is unsuitable for the built-in
flash. To find out whether the lens is suit-
able with the
's built-in flash, see the
camera's instruction manual.
When using the built-in flash, remove any
lens hood. The lens hood may obstruct the
built-in flash.
* The FA 43mm f/1.9 Limited lens is
compatible with the built-in flash even
with the lens hood attached.
With an external flash
If you use an external flash, you
can use the lens with the lens hood
attached. For details, see the external
flash's instruction manual.
With the AF500FTZ flash
If the AF500FTZ flash is used with an
FA lens shorter than 24mm, the flash
does not show a blinking focal length
display as a warning.
