Adjustment procedure for servo flash mode
• Select a mode for the camera flash unit without pre-flash.

• Press the

key repeatedly until "Select" appears

on the display.

• Use the

and

keys to select the menu item

"Remote". The selected menu item will be highlighted
with a dark bar.

• Press the

button and select “Servo” by pres-

sing the

and

buttons. The setting will take

effect immediately.

• Press the button

repeatedly until the screen

returns to the normal display. If the button

This is automatically selected after switching the
