4.1 Flash readiness indication

When the flash capacitor on the flash unit is
charged, the button lights up in green,

accordingly in the camera's viewfinder.

not be triggered. If the camera has already
switched to flash sync speed, the shot may
have the wrong exposure (see 13.1).

4.2 Correct exposure indication

If the exposure is correct, then button
lights up in red for around 3 seconds if the
photograph has been correctly exposed in

instead of 11), or
