Advanced (Recording pictures)
The flash setting is memorized even if the camera is turned off. However, the scene mode flash
setting is reset to the initial setting when the scene mode is changed.
The available flash range to take pictures
The available flash range is an approximation.
In [HIGH SENS.] (P52) in scene mode, the ISO sensitivity automatically switches to between
[ISO1600] and [ISO6400] and the available flash range also differs.
Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢1The shutter speed changes depending on the [STABILIZER] (P66) setting.
¢2 When Intelligent ISO is set (P60)
¢3 [SPORTS], [BABY1]/[BABY2] and [PET] in scene mode (P47)
¢1, 2, 3: The shutter speed becomes a maximum of 1second in the following cases.
When the optical image stabilizer is set to [OFF].
When the camera has determined that there is little jitter when the optical image stabilizer is
set to [MODE1] or [MODE2].
In Intelligent auto mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
There will be differences in the above shutter speeds in the scene modes.
[NIGHT PORTRAIT]: 1 or 1/8th of a second to 1/2000th of a second¢4
[NIGHT SCENERY]: 8 or 1/8th of a second to 1/2000th of a second¢4
[CANDLE LIGHT]: 1 or 1/8th of a second to 1/2000th of a second¢4
[STARRYSKY]: 15 seconds, 30 se conds, 60 seconds
[FIREWORKS]: 1/4th of a second, 2seconds¢4
All other scene modes: 1/8th of a second to 1/2000th of a second
¢4 The maximum shutter speed is selected when the amount of jitter is minimal while
[STABILIZER] is set or when [STABILIZER] is set to [OFF].
Note
If you bring the flash too close to an object, the object may be distorted or discolored by the
heat or lighting from the flash.
When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted
properly and the picture may become bright or dark.
