u Caution
Flashes with the reversed polarity (the center contact on the
hot shoe is minus) cannot be used due to the risk of damaging
the camera and/or flash.
Do not combine with accessories that have a different
number of contacts, such as Hot Shoe Grip, as a malfunction
may occur.
Combining with flashes from other manufacturers may cause
equipment breakdown.
t Memo
With the AF540FGZ, AF540FGZ II, AF360FGZ,
or AF360FGZ II, you can use the high-speed sync flash
to discharge the flash and take a picture at a shutter speed
faster than 1/180 seconds. Set the exposure mode to I,
K, or L.
By using two or more external flashes (AF540FGZ,
AF540FGZ II, AF360FGZ, or AF360FGZ II), you can use the
wireless mode to shoot in P-TTL flash mode without
connecting the flash units with a cord. In this case, set the
camera channel on the external flashes.
You can connect an external flash
to the camera with a sync cord by
using the X-sync socket. Remove
the Sync socket 2P cap to connect
a sync cord to the X-sync socket.
t Memo
In rare cases, the camera may not operate correctly due
to causes such as static electricity, etc. This can be remedied
by taking the battery out and putting it back in again. If the
camera operates correctly, it does not require any repairs.
