Based on new AA/LR6 alkaline batteries and Canon's testing standards.
The Quick Flash function enables flash shooting before the flash is fully
charged (p.16).
Note that certain AA/R6 lithium batteries may become extremely hot
in rare cases during usage. Due to safety reasons, do not use "AA/
R6 lithium batteries".
Using AA/R6 batteries other than the alkaline type may cause improper
battery contact due to the irregular shape of the battery contacts.
If you change the batteries after firing flashes continuously, be aware that
the batteries might be hot.
