Flash mode

Description

[ Blank] Auto

The flash fires automatically to suit the

 

 

 

photographic conditions.

 

 

 

 

[

]

Red-eye Reduction

Use this mode to reduce the red-eye

 

 

 

phenomenon when you want to take natural-

 

 

 

looking photographs of people and animals in

 

 

 

low-light conditions.

 

 

 

When taking photographs, the red-eye

 

 

 

phenomenon can be reduced by asking the

 

 

 

subject (person) to look at the camera or get

 

 

 

as close to the camera as possible.

 

 

 

The flash always fires twice, and the

 

 

 

photograph is taken at the second firing.

Forced Flash

In this mode, the flash always fires. Use this

 

 

 

mode for photographing under artificial light

 

 

 

such as backlighting, fluorescent lighting, etc.

[

]

Suppressed Flash

Use this mode when taking pictures using

 

 

 

indoor lighting, for stages and indoor

 

 

 

competitions, and when the subject is too far

 

 

 

away for the flash to be effective.

[

]

Night Scene

Use this mode when taking pictures of people

 

 

 

at dark or night-time background.

 

 

 

When the Night Scene is selected, the flash

 

 

 

mode is fixed to Slow Synchronization. (the

 

 

 

flash is fired at a slower shutter speed.)

In the [ ] focus mode and capture mode [Continuous] and [Auto Exp.], the flash mode is fixed to [ ] Suppressed Flash.

The flash cannot be set in the [ ] mode.
