|
| (subject) properly lighted. This flash mode forces the camera to use a slower shutter | |
| Slow sync | speed in combination with the flash. The flash fires briefly to light the foreground | |
|
| (subject) while capturing ambient light to reveal more detail in the background. If | |
|
| Slow Sync flash is not used, the background may appear black or underexposed. | |
|
|
| |
| Forced off | The flash is turned off and will not fire regardless of the lighting situation. In low light | |
| situations, the use of a tripod may be required to reduce photo blurring. | ||
