Flash Shooting

There are four flash modes:

Auto	: This setting automatically flashes when shooting under dark conditions.
Forced on	: Select this setting to force the flash.
Red-eye prevention	: Select this setting to minimize the “red-eye” effect that occurs when using the
	flash. The flash is forced to light.
Off	: Select this setting to disable the flash even when shooting under dark conditions.
	Note that in order to prevent blurry photos a tripod should be used with this
	setting, since the shutter speed is slower.
