words, it is like a high-output flash attached externally in place of the

built-in flash.

For detailed instructions, refer to the EX-series Speedlite's

instruction manual. This camera is a Type-A camera that can use all

the features of EX-series Speedlites.

(p.216), only [Flash exposure compensation] can be set for [External

monitor will change from _ to _"_.

If the Speedlite's Custom Function has the flash metering mode set to

TTL autoflash, the flash will fire at full output only.
