Using the Flash
With the AF540FGZ or AF360FGZ, you can discharge the flash to take a
picture at a shutter speed faster than 1/180 second.
1
Remove the cover of the hot shoe and attach the external
flash.
2
Set the exposure mode to e, b, L or a.
Select an exposure mode which allows you to set the shutter speed.
3
Turn on the camera and the external flash.
4
Set the external flash sync mode to HSb (High-speed
flash sync).
5
Confirm that the external flash is fully charged and then
take a picture.
The b will light in the viewfinder when the flash is ready (fully charged).
For details such as operation method and effective distance, please refer to
the external flash manual.
The flash does not discharge if the subject is bright enough when the flash
mode is C or i. Therefore, it may not be suitable for Daylight-Sync
shooting.
Never press the E button when any external flash unit is attached to the
camera. The built-in flash will hit the external flash. If you want to use both at
once, set the wireless mode or connect them using the extension cord.
