Caution -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Do not raise the built-in flash when using the external flash as this can result in injury or damage.
• Turn the external flash off before removing it from the camera.
• Use the external flash at ranges that exceed the range of the built-in flash. Shooting at a short dis-
