Caution
Some Speedlites cannot be attached directly to this camera. For details, see Multi-
Function Shoe.
Setting [ : Auto Lighting Optimizer] ( ) to an option other than [Disable] may
still cause images to look bright even if you set lower flash exposure compensation
for darker images.
Using high-speed sync may cause banding in images. To reduce the banding, it
may help to do the following.
• Separate the Speedlite from the camera
• Lower the shutter speed
• Set [Shutter synchronization] to an option other than [High-speed
synchronization]
• Set [ : Shutter mode] to an option other than [Electronic]
Note
The Speedlite will fire an intermittent AF-assist beam as needed, if autofocusing is
difficult under low light.
You can also set flash exposure compensation on the Quick Control screen ( ) or
in the [Flash function settings] setting of [ : External Speedlite control] ( ).
The camera can turn on certain Speedlites automatically when the camera is
turned on. For details, refer to the instruction manual of Speedlites that support this
feature.
