Notes on Flash Recording
Do not bring any object near the flash. Heat or light may cause the object to
deform or discolor.
If you record repeatedly, time may be needed to charge the flash.
While the flash is charging, images will be recorded without the flash firing.
When an external flash is attached, do not carry the camera by holding only the
external flash. It may become detached.
When using a commercially available external flash, do not use one with
reversed polarity or function for communicating with a camera.
It may cause the camera to malfunction, or it may not operate correctly.
Refer to the operating instructions for the external flash for details.
