Flash

Tip:

• When the subject brightness is low with flash set to "AUTO" (automatically emits light), a flash mark ( ) will appear on the screen when the PHOTO button is pressed half or all the way in.

Cautions:

• Flash automatically adjusts the amount of light to be emitted, but if the distance to subject is too far or too near, the light amount adjustment may not be sufficient. The distance to subject that allows optimum light amount adjustment varies depending on the subject, but is approximately 1.8 - 9.0 feet (0.5 - 2.5 m).

•Set flash to "OFF" for macro still recording. When the subject is too near, white compression could occur.
