The built-in flash on a digital camera rarely provides enough light or enough versatility for the dedicated digital photographer. For this reason, many digital photographers choose to use a flash unit for their digital camera. Flash units come in many shapes and sizes, and must precisely match the digital camera.
Instructions
1. Check to see whether your digital camera has a "hot shoe." A hot shoe is a jack on your digital camera that connects your camera with an external flash unit. If it does have a hot shoe, you will find it easier to choose a flash unit for your digital camera. Newer digital cameras may even have a wireless hot shoe, which you can use with a wireless flash unit.
2. Identify flash units that are compatible with your camera. Choose the one that most suits your needs and budget.
3. Read the manual included with your flash unit to learn connect the unit to your digital camera.
4. Connect the flash unit to your digital camera and take pictures.
