: AUTO

The flash fires automatically according to the lighting condition.

: AUTO/Red-eye reduction

The flash fires automatically according to the recording situation.

It reduces the red-eye phenomenon (when a subject’s eyes appear red in flash light). Use it when you take pictures of people or animals in low lighting conditions.

: Forced ON

The flash fires every time a picture is captured.

Use this setting when your subject is back-lit or under fluorescent light.

: Slow sync./Red-eye reduction When you take a picture with a dark background landscape, it makes the flash fire and the shutter speed slow, so that the dark background landscape will become bright. Simultaneously it reduces the red-eye phenomenon.

We recommend that you use a tripod.
