Taking Pictures with Both the FL-40 and
the Camera's Built-in Flash
Pictures can be taken using both the FL-40 and the camera's built-in flash.
This technique is a good way to improve lighting. For example, you can use
this flash to bounce light off an object while using the built-in flash to catch the
subject's pupils.
1Set this flash's ON/OFF switch to the ON side.
2Set the camera's built-in flash.
3Select the flash mode from the camera side.
4
Check the Charged lamp lights up.
If not, the flash is not fully charged yet.
5 Press the shutter release button down all the way.
MEMO
• You can check whether the flash fired correctly. If the AUTO CHECK lamp blinks for 5
seconds after the shutter release button has been pressed down all the way, the flash
fired correctly.
NOTE
• When using the dual flashes, pictures cannot be taken unless the built-in flash and the
FL-40 are both charged and ready.
• When using both the FL-40 and the camera's built-in flash, the FL-40 emits more light
than the built-in flash. Moreover, illumination is automatically set for both flashes so that
the object is properly illuminated. However, when photographing far away objects, the
built-in flash is turned OFF automatically and only this flash fires.
Bouncing Light
"Bouncing light" is a technique for indirectly illuminating subjects by reflecting
- said "bouncing" here - light from the flash off a wall or ceiling. In some
cases, when flashing straight on the subject, shadows are easily produced in
the background. Bouncing the light immerses the entire subject in soft
lighting. It is also possible to use the camera's built-in flash to catch the
subject's pupils at the same time.
1Angle the flash head towards the wall or ceiling.
The flash head can be turned 0 to 90˚ upward and to the left, and 0 to
180˚ to the right.
