ADVANCED OPERATION FOR THE BUILT-IN FLASH

1.When using one of 6 Picture Modes

The camera automatically chooses an optimum combination of shutter speed and aperture according to the subject brightness, allowing you to take a flash photograph with ease.

The shutter speed automatically changes to approximately 1/100 sec. or to a slower speed, which does not cause camera shake. The slowest shutter speed depends on the focal length of the lens fitted to the camera. The slowest

shutter speed in the Night-scene Program Mode is 1 seconds. When the Action program mode is used, the shutter speed is fixed to 1/100 of second.

2.Shutter-Priority AE Mode

When taking a fast moving subject, you can increase a subject blur effect. The shutter speed can be set slower than 1/100 of second.

In this mode, the aperture automatically changes according to the ambient brightness, making a flash photograph easily.

3.Aperture-Priority AE mode

In this mode, the shutter speed automatically changes with the ambient brightness. The shutter speed changes in range of 1/100 sec. to a slower shutter speed that does not cause camera shake. The slowest shutter speed depends on the focal length of the lens in use. The shutter speed of 1/100 sec. is set automatically with a Pentax A lens.
