The FL-40 extension flash (optional) can be used to take various kinds of
flash photographs, either by itself or together with the main flash. To
connect the extension flash to the camera, the exclusive grip (optional)
and bracket cable (optional) are required.
TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS USING THE FL-40
EXTENSION FLASH
If the extension flash is used, the flash mode and exposure
compensation are detected automatically, allowing the main flash and
extension flash to function together.
Using the two flashes together enables more sophisticated lighting, such
as using the extension flash for bounce lighting and the main flash for
front lighting. The default setting is to have the extension flash and main
flash work together.
Mount the FL-40 extension
flash on the exclusive grip,
then fasten it to the camera’s
tripod hole and connect the
exclusive grip and the
camera’s extension flash
connection terminal using the
exclusive bracket cable.
• The extension flash connector
cover on the camera is a screw
type. Unscrew and remove it to
connect the exclusive bracket
cable.

Note:
• If you are using another brand of extension flash, it cannot be used without the
main flash.
• The camera’s flash mode has no effect on the extension flash. It will fire even
when the camera’s flash mode is set to Off.
• Before using another brand of flash unit, take care concerning the following
points.
• Some flashes available on the market operate with a high voltage synchro
terminal. If such a flash unit is used, it may not function normally. Contact the
manufacturer of the flash you are using concerning the specifications of the
flash’s synchro terminal.
• Some flashes available on the market have the polarity of the synchro
terminals reversed. In this case, even if the flash is connected, it will not fire.
Contact the manufacturer of the flash for more information.
• Confirm in advance that the flash unit you are using is synchronized with the
camera.
• If a flash unit or other accessory with additional communications functions is
used, it may not only fail to function normally, but may also cause damage to
the camera’s circuitry. Do not use such a device.
• It is recommended that the Olympus FL-40 extension flash be used with this
camera.
95
Other brands of extension flash that can be used.
When selecting an extension flash, use products which meet the
following basic conditions.
(1) Exposures when using an extension flash require that adjustments
be made on the extension flash unit.
If an extension flash is used in the Auto mode, matched it with the F
value and ISO sensitivity settings on the camera.
(2) Even if the auto F value and ISO sensitivity of the extension flash are
set to the same conditions as those on the camera, depending on the
photographic conditions, it is possible that the correct exposure may
not be obtained anyway. In such a case, adjust the auto F value or
ISO value on extension flash unit or calculate the distance in the
manual mode and use it that way. However, generally, the auto F
value and ISO value can only be adjusted 1 step and beyond that,
exposure compensation cannot be made. (Exposure compensation in
the camera is made invalid in extension flash photography.)
(3) Use a flash which is capable of covering an illumination angle for a
35 mm or larger lens when calculated for 32 mm film. However, in
close-up photography with the lens on the wide setting, the bottom of
the image may not expose correctly. The ideal is to have a wide
angle adapter to fit on the flash and spread the illumination angle so
it is wider.
(4) Use a flash unit with a flash time of 1/200 sec. or less when using the
flash at full strength. For devices with a long flash time, such as a
ring flash, a portion of the light emitted will not contribute to the
exposure.
(5) If a flash unit or other accessory with additional communications
functions other than the FL-40 is used, it may not only fail to function
normally, but may also cause damage to the camera’s circuitry. Do
not use such a device.
