: AUTO/Red-eye reduction
The flash fires automatically according to the recording situation and simultaneously it reduces the red-eye phenomenon (when a subject’s eyes appear red in flash light).
Use it when a subject is recorded in dark places.
: Forced ON
The flash is forced to fire.
Use it when a subject is backlighted, under the light of a halogen lamp, and so on.
: SLOW SYNC.
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 brighter.
: Forced OFF
Even in dark places, the flash does not fire.
Use it when you take pictures in places where flash is forbidden and for distances which the light of the flash does not reach.
Before use, please read these instructions completely
