[Disable], the image may still look bright even if a decreased flash
exposure compensation is set.
 If flash exposure compensation is set with an external Speedlite (sold
separately, p.233), you cannot set the flash exposure compensation with
the camera. If it is set with both the camera and external Speedlite, the
Speedlite’s setting overrides the camera’s.

set the power switch to <2>.
 You can also set flash exposure compensation with [Built-in flash
settings] in [z1: Flash control] (p.235).
 The camera can also be used to set the external Speedlite’s flash
exposure compensation in the same way as with the built-in flash.
