NOTES

•The flash will not fire in the following cases:

-When you manually adjust the

exposure in (auto) mode.

-During auto exposure bracketing.

-In the [ Fireworks] recording program.

-When using the optional VL-5 Video Light.

•The practical range of the flash is approx. 1 to 2 m (3.3 to 6.6 ft.). The actual range will depend on the recording conditions.

•The range of the flash decreases in continuous shooting mode.

•The flash mode cannot be selected when the exposure is locked.

•We recommend not using the flash while the optional Wide-converter or Tele-converter is attached; its shadow can appear on the screen.

Histogram Display

When viewing photos you can display the histogram and the icons of all the functions used at the time of recording. The histogram will be displayed also immediately after taking a photo.

Use the histogram as a reference to verify the correct exposure of the photo.

The area to the right of the histogram represents highlights and the left side represents shadows. A photo whose histogram skews to the right is relatively

bright; while one whose histogram peaks to the left, is relatively dark.
