•Slight camera movement in digital zoom will make it more difficult to focus on objects/subjects. Use of a tripod can reduce this issue.

Using Flash Features

By default, this camera is set to automatic flash mode which means that it will determine when to use this feature or not. However, is some situations, it may be useful to manually select the appropriate flash mode. When taking

pictures in difficult lighting conditions, use the Flash button to select the desired mode. This function cannot be activated while recording videos or continuous shooting.

To activate Flash:

• Tap the onscreen Flash button to display the popup flash menu and tap desired flash mode icon.

Icon.	Item	Description
	AUTO	The flash fires automatically whenever the camera determines extra lighting is needed.
	AUTO	This is the default mode of the camera.
		This is the default mode of the camera.
		The flash fires twice to help reduce the red-eye effect. The first flash strobe is
	Red-eye	designed to force the iris of the subject to reduce in size to compensate for the bright
	reduction	light, thus reducing the reflection (red eye effect) of the Eye retina. The second strobe
		is when the photo is taken.
	Forced on	The flash fires whenever you press the Shutter button	regardless of
		lighting conditions. This may be useful in some bright backlight situations.
		This would be used to capture a dimly lit background while keeping the foreground
		(subject) properly lighted. This flash mode forces the camera to use a slower shutter
	Slow sync	speed in combination with the flash. The flash fires briefly to light the foreground
		(subject) while capturing ambient light to reveal more detail in the background. If
		Slow Sync flash is not used, the background may appear black or underexposed.
	Forced off	The flash is turned off and will not fire regardless of the lighting situation. In low light
	Forced off	situations, the use of a tripod may be required to reduce photo blurring.

•Flash function is only available in shooting still images but not available in Burst and AEB modes.

•Do not charge the flash while pressing the zoom button. Charge the flash after releasing the zoom button if necessary.
