dSetting the Flash (Intelligent Flash)

Flash photography is useful for taking pictures at night or indoor dark locations. Choose from 7 flash modes according to the type of shot. See p.63 for information on the available Photography modes.

MEMO

By calculating subject distance and brightness, the camera automatically adjusts the flash amount and sensitivity to suit shooting conditions. This maintains consistent balance of bright/dark areas across the image in low-light conditions (dimly-lit room, etc). The Intelligent Flash feature guarantees consistent results when using the flash.

The flash setting changes each time you press d(q).When [ FACEDETECTIONbREMOVAL ON] is set.

MEMO

When pressing the shutter button down halfway, b appears on the LCD monitor before the flash fires.

[ AUTO FLASH] (not displayed)

Use this mode for ordinary photography.

The flash fires as required by the shooting conditions.

[ RED EYE REDUCTION]

This mode is suitable for shooting portraits in low-light conditions. Use this mode to minimize red-eye (eyes appear in red in the finished photo).

MEMO Red-eye effect

When using the flash to take a picture of people in low- light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye.
