Before using the remote control for the first time, remove the clear plastic battery-insulator sheet.
Using the Built-in Flash
Before taking a photograph with the flash in manual pop-up modes (0Manual Pop-up Modes), press the M (Y) button to raise the flash and wait for the flash-ready indicator (M) to be displayed (0The Built-in Flash). Shooting will be interrupted if the flash is raised while remote control mode is in effect. If the flash is required, the camera will only respond to the ML-L3 shutter-release button once the flash has charged. In auto pop-up modes (0Auto Pop-up Modes), the flash will begin charging when remote control mode is selected; once the flash is charged, it will automatically pop up and fire when required.
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.
Focusing in Remote Control Mode
The camera will not adjust focus continuously when continuous-servo autofocus is selected; note however that regardless of the autofocus mode selected, you can focus by pressing the camera shutter-release button halfway before shooting. If auto- or single-servo autofocus is selected or the camera is in live view in delayed or quick-response remote mode, the camera will automatically adjust focus before shooting; if the camera is unable to focus in viewfinder photography, it will return to stand-by without releasing the shutter.
