FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
Using built-in Speedlight
1
Release the built-in Speedlight by pressing the
Speedlight lock-release button, and set the flash
sync mode by rotating the Command Dial while
pressing j button.
Flash starts to charge when it is released and q appears in the viewfinder
when Speedlight is fully charged.
q (normal sync) disappears from the LCD panel when Normal Sync is set
and q button is released.
Press down gently on the Speedlight to retract.

aperture.

*1 Except when Slow Sync or Red-Eye Reduction is set in Auto-Multi Program, Night Scene
Program (in Vari-Program) or Aperture-Priority Auto exposure mode. (1/125 sec. or
slower shutter speed is selected.)
*2 Shutter speed shifts automatically to 1/125 sec. when the shutter speed is set to 1/125
sec. or faster and the flash is fired (or attached optional Speedlight is turned on).
*3 Flash shooting distance range depends on the ISO film speed of film in use and aperture
selected. In Aperture-Priority Auto or Manual exposure mode, set the aperture according
to the flash shooting distance range table on page 58.
3
Confirm q appears in viewfinder and make sure the
subject is within the flash shooting distance range
(page 58).
q in viewfinder blinks approx. 3 sec. after full flash output. This may
indicate underexposure has occurred. Check the focus distance, aperture
or flash shooting distance range and shoot again.
When the subject is dimly lit, the AF-Assist Illuminator automatically emits
(page 36) to guide autofocus.
In General-Purpose or Auto-Multi Program exposure mode, camera
automatically controls maximum available aperture according to the film
speed. See page 63.

Usable lenses with built-in Speedlight
28mm to 200mm CPU lenses and AF 300mm f/4 can be used with the built-in
Speedlight. However, AF-S 17-35mm f/2.8, AF 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5 ED and AF 20-
35mm f/2.8 cannot be used.
Vignetting occurs at the edges of the frame resulting in underexposure with the following
zoom lenses, which have limitations in usable focal length or shooting distance:
• Do not set the zoom lens to Macro in wideangle and always remove the lens hood when
using the built-in Speedlight.
Lens Limitations
AF 24-50mm f/3.3-4.5 35mm or longer focal length.
