7Disabling Flash
<7> is a fully-automatic shooting mode that does not use flash. It is useful in museums, aquariums, and other places where flash is prohibited. This mode is also effective for capturing the particular ambience of a scene, such as candlelight scenes.
Shooting Tips
Prevent camera shake if the numeric display in the viewfinder blinks.
Under low light when camera shake is prone to occur, the viewfinder’s shutter speed display will blink. Hold the camera steady or use a tripod. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to reduce blur caused by camera shake even while handholding the camera.
Take portraits without flash.
In low-light conditions, tell the subject to keep still until the picture is taken. Any movement by the subject during shooting may result in the subject being blurred in the picture.
