Using the flash

Press the flash button repeatedly to change flash modes.

The flash mode appears in the LCD screen.

NOTE: Flash settings are preset for each picture-taking mode and are not available in all Capture or SCN modes. When you change to Auto or Red-eye in some of these modes, it becomes the default until you change it.

Flash mode

Description

 

Auto Flash

The flash fires when the lighting conditions require it.

 

 

 

Fill

The flash fires every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting

 

conditions. Use when the subject is in shadow or is “backlit” (when

 

light is behind the subject). In low light, hold the camera steady or use

 

a tripod.

 

 

 

 

Red Eye

The camera automatically detects and removes red eye from the

 

 

picture. (For Red Eye Preflash, see page 38.)

 

 

IMPORTANT: When the flash is set to Red Eye, the camera

 

 

cannot take more than 2 pictures in quick

 

 

succession. Take more pictures when the Ready

 

 

light turns green.

 

 

 

 

Off

The flash never fires.
