Notes On Use - Sony HVL-F42AM Manual De Instrucciones

Notes on use

While shooting
• This flash unit generates strong light, so it should not be used directly in front of
the eyes.
• Do not use the flash 20 times in a row or in quick succession in order to prevent
heating and degradation of the camera and flash unit. (when the power level is
1/32, 40 times in a row.)
Stop using the flash unit and cool it for 10 minutes or more, if the flash is
triggered up to the limit for the number of times in quick succession.
• Attach the camera while the flash unit is turned off.
If you do not do so, you may cause a malfunction of the flash unit or the use of
an incorrect luminescence, and the powerful light may damage your eyes.
Batteries
• The battery level displayed on the control panel may be lower than the actual
battery capacity, temperature, and storage conditions. The displayed battery
level is restored to the correct value after the flash has been used a few times.
• Nickel-metal hydride batteries can lose power suddenly. If low-battery lamp
starts blinking or the flash can no longer be used while taking pictures, change or
recharge the batteries.
• The flash frequency and number of flashes provided by new batteries may vary
from the values shown in the table, depending on the time elapsed since
manufacture of the batteries.
• Remove the batteries only after turning the power off and waiting several
minutes, when changing the batteries. The batteries may be hot, depending on
the battery type. Remove them carefully.
• Remove and store the batteries when you do not intend to use the camera for a
long time.
