Do Not Obstruct the Built-in Speedlight

By default, the Pop Up option in the Speedlight Options menu is set to

Auto (

136). When additional light is required for correct exposure, the

built-in Speedlight will pop up automatically when the shutter-release but-
ton is pressed halfway. The built-in Speedlight will also pop up when an
external Speedlight is attached so that the photocell can
be used to correctly set exposure for the shot (

138).

If your finger or another object obstructs the built-in
Speedlight, preventing it from popping up when the shut-
ter-release button is pressed halfway, the built-in Speed-
light and any external Speedlight will not fire and a message will appear in
the monitor.

When the built-in Speedlight is raised, keep your fingers and other objects

away from the flash window and photocell.

Red-Eye Reduction Mode

When taking photos in red-eye reduction mode, make sure
that your fingers are not obstructing the red-eye reduction
lamp.
