NOTES:

The flash does not light when the flash is set to

“OFF” on the recording menu when GAIN UP is set to “OFF” (pg. 32), when P.AE effect is set to “TWILIGHT” and also when the battery remaining power is low.

When taking several snapshots in succession (Motor Drive Mode), the flash lights only during the first one.

Although images shot with a flash tend to look whiter than they actually are, to compensate for this camcorder automatically darkens the picture when using the flash. When shooting a subject at a distance where the flash light cannot reach (over 2 m), set the flash to “OFF” to prevent the picture from becoming too dark.

The colour tone changes depending on the background lighting conditions, such as under fluorecent or halogen lamps.

When you want to change the brightness of the flash, refer to “Adjusting Flash Brightness” (pg. 27).

While charging the flash, blinks in the LCD monitor or the viewfinder and the flash does not light. Although noise may appear in the view- finder or the LCD monitor, this is not a malfunc- tion. This is not recorded. It can take up to ten seconds to charge the flash.
