Ready Light turn off. To reactivate the flash, partly depress the camera's shutter release,
or slide the power switch to the "OFF" position and then back to the "ON" position. The
flash Ready Light and LCD panel will go on again after a brief delay.

the capture setting on the camera. The focal length range is 24–80 mm. If the value
on the camera is less than or equal to 24 mm, "F mm" is displayed. If no information
is received from the camera, "-- mm" is displayed.

Zoom.

TEST BUTTON

If the Test button is pressed after the Ready Light goes on, a test flash fires.

FLASH RANGE SCALE

In response to a signal from the camera, the flash calculates the effective flash range
and displays it on the LCD panel. This range shows the minimum and maximum distances
a proper exposure can be made using the flash. To increase or decrease the effective
distances, set the camera to Aperture Priority mode and change the aperture setting. The
flash range scale changes as the aperture (f/stop value) is adjusted.
The available range will be displayed when you partly depress the camera's shutter
release or when the Ready Light is on. The flash range is 1.5 –100 ft (0.5–30 m) and is
indicated by a bar graph. An asterisk indicates distances greater than 100 ft (30 m).
