B Notes About Using Commander Mode

• In commander mode, the camera's built-in flash emits low-level flashes in order to

control the flash unit. Therefore, the built-in flash must always be raised when

using commander mode. The remote flash unit fires in accordance with the

Commander mode options (E59) set.

• The built-in flash is not usable when it is set to the commander mode.

• Ensure that light directly from the flash unit or strong reflections do not enter the

shooting lens of the camera. It may not be possible to obtain the correct exposure

if such light enters the lens.

• If the light of the remote flash bounces and does not directly light a subject, set the

Flash control mode of the Commander mode (E59) to Manual in order to

adjust the flash output.

• Aside from monitor preflashes, the camera's built-in flash emits low-level flashes

during shooting to match the flash timing of the flash unit. When shooting a

subject at close distance, these low-level flashes may be captured on the image. To

prevent such adverse effects, use a lower ISO sensitivity or a larger aperture value

(A50).

• Refer to the documentation provided with your Speedlight for more information

on flash unit settings.
