dSetting the Flash (Intelligent Flash)

Flash photography is useful for taking pictures at night or indoor dark locations. Choose from 6 flash modes according to the type of shot. See p.67 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.
