D Flash Photography
262
If the camera is used with a flash unit or flash accessory dedicated to
another camera brand, the camera may not operate properly and
malfunction may result.
Do not connect to the camera’s PC terminal any flash unit with an output
voltage of 250 V or more.
Do not attach a high-voltage flash unit to the camera’s hot shoe. It may
not be fired.
A flash unit attached to the camera’s hot shoe and a flash unit connected to
the PC terminal can both be used at the same time.
Metered Manual Flash Exposure
This is for close-up flash photography when you want to set the flash level
manually. Use an 18% standard gray card and an EX-series Speedlite that
has manual flash mode. Follow the instructions below:
1. Set the camera and flash settings.
Set the camera’s shooting mode to <a> or <f>.
Set the Speedlite to manual flash mode.
2. Focus on the subject.
3. Set up the 18% standard gray card.
Place the standard gray card at the subject’s position.
Place the standard gray card so that it fills the entire spot metering
circle in the viewfinder.
4. Press the <B> button (8).
5. Set the flash exposure level.
Adjust the Speedlite’s manual flash level and the camera
aperture so that the flash exposure level aligns with the
standard exposure index.
6. Take the picture.
Remove the standard gray card and take the picture.
