Using an External Flash Unit

Use an external flash unit when you want additional or specialized lighting. You can use the camera's built-in flash as well to provide extra fill flash.


  1. Turn off the camera and flash unit.

  2. Plug your external flash unit cable into the external flash connector on the camera.

The external flash unit is live when connected to the camera. Each time the camera takes a picture, the external flash unit is signaled to flash, regardless of the camera flash setting.

Refer to your external flash unit user's guide for details.

NOTE: The connector accepts all standard external flash cables, maximum 500 volts.
