SNAPSHOT. The flash fires twice. The first flash is for reduction of the human eye’s red reflection and the second flash is for the actual recording.

NOTES:

Do not fire the flash at a person at short range.

The flash does not fire when the flash is set to “OFF” in the Menu Screen, and also when the battery

remaining power is low. Moreover, the flash does not fire when it is set to “AUTO” in the Menu Screen with GAIN UP set to “OFF” ( pg. 29) and with Programme AE with special effects set to “TWILIGHT”

(  pg. 38).

When taking several snapshots in succession (Motor Drive Mode), the flash fires only during the first one.

Although images shot with a flash tend to look whiter than they actually are, to compensate for this the camcorder automatically darkens the picture when using the flash. When shooting a subject at a distance where the flash light cannot reach (over approx. 6.5 ft./2 m), push down the flash to prevent the picture from becoming too dark or becoming too tinted.

The color tone changes depending on the background lighting conditions, such as under fluorescent or halogen lamps.

To change the brightness of the flash,  “Flash Brightness Adjustment” (  pg. 33).

While charging the flash, blinks and the flash will not fire. Although noise may appear, this is not a malfunction and is not recorded. It can take up to 10 seconds to charge the flash.
