Attaching and Detaching the Speedlite

  1. Attach the Speedlite.

    • Remove the camera shoe cover and Speedlite mounting foot cover.
    • Insert the Speedlite slowly, making sure the Speedlite mounting foot is aligned with the camera multi-function shoe.
    • Insert the Speedlite mounting foot all the way into the hot shoe.

  2. Secure the Speedlite.

    • Slide the mounting foot lock lever to the right.
    • The lock lever is locked when it clicks into place.

  3. Detach the Speedlite.

    • While pressing the lock-release button, slide the lock lever left and remove the Speedlite.

Caution

  • Be sure to turn off the Speedlite before attaching or detaching it.
  • Forcing the Speedlite onto a camera without a multi-function shoe may damage it or the camera.
  • Do not allow hard objects to touch the contacts. This may damage the camera.
  • Do not touch the contacts with your fingers. This may lead to corrosion. Corroded contacts may cause malfunctioning.
  • Blow off any foreign material on the multi-function shoe with a commercially available blower or similar tool.
  • Allow the multi-function shoe to dry before use if it gets wet.
