When the lighting conditions require it.

Flash

 

Fill

Every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting

 

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

 

(when the sun is behind the subject). In low light, hold the

 

camera steady or use a tripod.

Red-eyeOnce, so the subject’s eyes become accustomed to the flash,

 

then fires again when the picture is taken. (If the lighting

 

conditions require flash but do not require Red-eye reduction,

 

the flash may fire only once.)

Off

Never

For flash setting in each mode, see page 49.

NOTE: Rear-curtain-flash sync (a feature found only in S, M, and Night portrait modes) activates automatically when the flash is fired and the shutter speed is set at 1/30 second or longer. The flash fires just before the shutter closes to create a stream-of-light effect behind a moving object for a more natural appearance.
