FLASH MODES

The flash can be used when taking still images. To select the flash mode, press the right key of the controller (1) until the appropriate mode is displayed. The active flash mode is displayed in the top left corner of the LCD monitor.

Autoflash - the flash fires automatically in low-light conditions.

Fill flash - the flash fires with each exposure regardless of the amount of ambient light. Fill-flash can be used to reduce harsh shadows caused by strong direct light or sunshine.

Flash cancel - the flash will not fire. Use flash cancel when flash photography is prohibited, natural light is desired to illuminate the subject, or the subject is beyond the flash range.

Camera Notes

Red-eye reduction can be activated with the setup menu. See page 74.

When using the aperture priority or manual exposure mode (p. 48), autoflash cannot be selected.
