sheet.

Before taking a photograph with the flash in P, S, A, M, or 

0 modes, press the M button to raise 

the flash and wait for the 

M indicator to be displayed in the viewfinder (0 70). Shooting will 

be interrupted if the flash is raised after the self-timer or delayed remote timer has started.
In auto or scene modes in which the flash pops up automatically, the flash will begin 
charging when delayed remote or quick-response remote mode is selected; once the flash is 
charged, it will automatically pop up and fire if required when the shutter-release button on 
the ML-L3 is pressed. The camera will only respond to the shutter-release button on the 
ML-L3 once the flash has charged. Only one photograph will be taken when the flash is used, 
regardless of the number of shots selected for Custom Setting c3 (Self-timer, 

0 157).

In flash modes that support red-eye reduction, the red-eye reduction lamp will light for 
about one second before the shutter is released. In delayed remote mode, the self-timer 
lamp will light for two seconds, followed by the red-eye reduction lamp, which lights for one 
second before the shutter is released to reduce red-eye.
