FILL-IN FLASH

(Forced Activation)

When you want the flash to fire for each shot.

The flash fires regardless of available light. Use this mode to compensate for a shadow oast on the subject's face (such as

the shadow of a tree). It is also used when shooting in backlit

conditions or under artificial lighting (such as fluorescent light). Use this mode within the

flash working range (p. 31).

Closing the lens barrier restores

the Auto Flash mode.
