Using the Flash

Auto Mode

The flash mode allows you to specify the settings according to shooting conditions.

•The flash has a range of approx. 0.5-7.0 m (1 ft. 8 in.-22 ft.) at the maximum wide- angle zoom position and a range of approx. 0.5-3.0 m (1 ft. 8 in.-9 ft. 10 in.) at the maximum telephoto zoom position.

•Note that when using easy auto mode (A 18), only UAuto (default setting) and W Off are available. When U Auto is applied, the camera automatically selects the optimum flash mode setting for the scene mode it has selected.

•The following flash modes are available when shooting in auto mode (A 27) and certain scene modes (A 33).

UAuto

Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor.

VAuto with red-eye reduction Reduces “red-eye” in portraits (A 29).

Flash will not fire even when lighting is poor.

XFill flash
