[ ] Fill Flash (on)

[ ] Flash Off

Description

The flash fires automatically according to the

ambient conditions. Select this mode for general

photography.

The flash emits a precursor-flash before the main

flash fires. This causes the pupil in the human eye

to constrict, reducing the red-eye. Select this

mode when taking pictures of people and animals

in low-light conditions.

The flash will always fire regardless of the

surrounding brightness. Select this mode for

recording images with high contrast

(backlighting) and deep shadows. Also known as

forced flash.

The flash will not fire. Select this mode when

taking images in a place where flash photography

is prohibited, or when the distance to the subject

is beyond the effective range of the flash.
