The programmed flash

(pictures 10, 11)

Every time you take a picture, indoors or outdoors, your camera blends light from the scene with just enough flash to provide the right lighting for the best possible picture.

In the sample outdoor scene, photographed without flash (picture 10), bright sunlight has created harsh facial shadows.

Your camera blends sunlight with just the right amount of flash to soften shadows and reveal facial details (pic- ture 11).

The recharge indicator

The Polaroid Spectra features a rapid recharge flash with recharge times usually less than a second. The green light on the control panel will come on and the flash will automatically begin to charge every time you:

Load film into the camera

Take a picture

When the green light comes on, the flash is ready to fire. The light will stay on for 20 to 30 seconds.

If you want to take a picture after the green light has gone off, lightly press and release the shutter button to turn the green light back on.
