Flash Mode

Description

AAuto Flash (Default) The camera judges if a flash is required. If the environment is too dark, the flash will fire.

A

Auto + Red-Eye

Use this mode to reduce the occurrence of “red-eyes” when taking pictures

 

 

with a flash. The camera will automatically detect when the flash is needed

 

 

and the flash will fire after a short delay.

 

 

 

 

Flash ON

Flash will fire in any lighting condition. The “red-eye” reduction function also

 

 

included in this mode.

 

 

 

 

Flash OFF

In this mode, the flash will not fire, regardless of the lighting condition. Use

 

 

this mode to capture the mood of ambient lighting. This mode is also useful

 

 

for places that prohibit flash photography, such as museums, aquarium,

 

 

archeological exhibitions, etc.

 

 

• To prevent blurry pictures in dim-lighting environment, hold the camera

 

 

steady when pressing the Shutter button or mount the camera on a tripod.

Note:

The flash needs to recharge after it is fired. If the Shutter button is pressed when the flash is charging, the Flash Ready LED will blink. Wait for a short while, then press the Shutter button again to take a picture.

Some of the scene selection will deactivate the flash setting. For more information, refer to p. 20.
