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.
