Flash Photography

Synchro modes and their features

You can select any of 5 modes to suit the type of shot and the desired effect.

While pressing d, rotate the main command-dial until the desired flash sync icon is displayed in the control panel.

See p.78 for details of flash shooting.

CAUTION

Some lenses may block the red-eye reduction lamp, preventing the subject from seeing the lamp and interfering with red-eye reduction.

dFront-curtain sync

Recommended for most situations. In programmed auto and aperture-priority auto modes, shutter speed will automatically be set to values between 1/60 and 1/250s (1/60 to 1/8,000s when using optional Speedlight with auto FP high-speed sync;➝p.88).

db Red-eye reduction

Red-eye reduction pre-flash lights for approximately one second before main flash. Pupils in subject’s eyes to contract, reducing “red-eye” effect sometimes caused by flash.

•Be aware that the camera and the subjects (people) in the shot do not move until the shutter is released.

d b SLOW Red-eye reduction with slow sync

Combines red-eye reduction with slow sync. This mode is only available in programmed auto and aperture-priority auto exposure modes.

•Use of tripod is recommended to prevent blurring caused by camera shake.

CAUTION

Only available in exposure modes and. d b (red- eye reduction) is selected in modesand.
