• When shooting indoors or using nightscape, you can use slow sync to
shoot a bright image of people and the background.
• You can use rear sync to shoot a natural image of the trailing of a moving
subject such as a moving bicycle or a walking person.
With an external wireless flash (not supplied), you can shoot with the flash
without a cord when the external flash is not attached to the camera. By
changing the position of the flash, you can shoot an image with a three
dimensional feel by highlighting the contrast of light and shadow on the
subject.
For the actual steps of shooting, refer to the operating instructions of the
flash.
