the built-in flash)	(Curtain-2 Synchro)

Bounce photography uses indirect lighting of subjects by reflecting the flash off the ceiling or wall. With straight flash

photography a strong shadow

often appears behind the subject. By bouncing the flash, you can obtain soft, well- balanced lighting of the entire subject. You can also use the built-in flash together with the G40 for additional affects.

Multi-flash emits the light several times in one exposure. With this flash mode, continuous movement, such as a golf swing,

can be photographed

sequentially in one frame. It's a multiple exposure with flash.

With Follow-Synchro mode, the flash fires at the final point of slow- synchro. For example, the tail- lights of a moving automobile can be captured on film.

When the IS-3DLX is equipped with the teleconverter lens (1.7X) or the wide-converter (0.8X), the built-in flash cannot be used. We recommend you use the G40 for such cases.
