Features That Can Be Set Using the Multi Selector

Available Flash Modes

UAuto

The flash fires automatically when lighting is dim.

VAuto with red-eye reduction

Reduce red-eye in portraits caused by the flash.

WOff

The flash will not fire.

We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in dark surroundings.

XFill flash

The flash fires whenever a picture is taken. Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects.

YSlow sync

Auto flash mode is combined with slow shutter speed.

Suited to evening and night portraits that include background scenery. The flash illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture background at night or under dim lighting.

Shooting Features

CThe Flash Mode Setting

The setting varies with the shooting mode. See “Available Features” (A 55) and “Default Settings” (A 61) for more information.

Some settings cannot be used with other functions (A 65).

The flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is saved in the camera’s memory even after the camera is turned off.

CRed-eye Reduction

This camera uses Advanced Red-Eye Reduction (In-Camera Red-Eye Fix).

If the camera detects red eye while saving an image, the affected area will be processed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved.

Note the following when shooting:

More time than usual is required to save images.

Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations.

In some cases, red-eye correction may be applied to areas of an image unnecessarily. In these

cases, select another flash mode and take the picture again.
