Before Flash Photography
Loading the batteries
Use four new size-AA alkaline-manganese (LR6) or Ni-Cd batteries. Carbon-zinc batteries may also be used, but their operating life is shorter.
 |
 |
 |
1) Wipe the battery terminals with
a clean, dry cloth to ensure proper contact.
2) Slide the battery chamber cover off.
3) Load the batteries so that their terminals face in the directions indicated by
the diagram inside the battery chamber.
4) Once the batteries are loaded, slide the battery chamber cover back on while pressing
the batteries down. Make sure the cover's tabs fit into the corresponding grooves
on the flash body.
Notes:
- When the batteries become exhausted, replace all four at the same time with four new ones of the same brand.
- Remove the batteries if you do not expect to use the 300TL for about three weeks or longer.
- The perfomance of the batteries deteriorates in cold temperature so please keep the batteries warm until just before use. For best results, use fully charged Ni-Cd batteries in especially cold temperatures [below 0°C (32°F)].
- When using Ni-Cd batteries, please note that different barnds have different types of terminals. Be sure to use a type which is suitable for this flash. Recharge Ni-Cd batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Mounting the 300TL on the Camera
 |
1) Loosen the lock nut and slide the 300TL into the T90's accessory shoe. To insure correct electrical contact, make sure it is pushed in all the way. |
Main Switch and Pilot Lamp
If the pilot lamp lights up when the main switch is turned on (" | " mark), the flash is ready for use. It is also possible to confirm whether the flash is charged by looking in the viewfinder.
 |
 |
Note: There is no need to set the film speed because it is transmitted from the camera body. |
Test Firing
To test the functioning of the flash, press the pilot lamp after it has lit. If the
flash fires, it is in proper working order.
