❍A pre-flash is fired to obtain the subject's exposure data to adjust the main flash to the optimal intensity (flash exposure compensation). When [RED EYE ] is set, the pre-flash fires between the flash for red-eye reduction and the main firing.

❍The flash will not fire in the following cases:

-When you press the EXP button in [AUTO ] or [RED-EYE ] mode.

-During auto exposure bracketing (the flash mark appears in purple).

-When a shutter speed of 1/2000 is set in CAMERA mode (the flash mark appears in purple). However, if [FLASH ON ] is selected, the shutter speed becomes set to 1/1000 and the flash fires.

-When an abnormality occurs during charging (the flash mark flashes in red).

-When the multi-image screen is selected, when you are recording movies onto a tape or when [STILL I. REC] is set to [OFF] (no flash mark appears).

❍We recommend not using the flash when the wide attachment (supplied with the ELURA70), the optional Wide-converter or Tele-converter is attached. Their shadows appear on the screen.

❍The flash mode cannot be selected when exposure is locked, or after the first still image in Stitch Assist mode.

❍The red-eye reduction mode cannot be used in stitch assist mode.

❍About the AF-Assist Lamp:

When recording still images with flash, the AF-assist lamp (white LED) lights up responding to the brightness of the subject to enable the camcorder to focus more accurately. The AF-assist lamp lights up when you focus manually while the PHOTO button is pressed halfway and turns off after a short time.

-The camcorder may not be able to focus even though the AF-assist lamp is lighting.

-The AF-assist lamp lights up brightly. Consider turning off the AF-assist lamp in public places such as in restaurants or theaters.

-Turn off the AF-assist lamp in places where flash photography is prohibited.
