: AUTO

The flash is automatically activated according to the recording condition.

: AUTO/Red-eye reduction The flash is automatically activated according to the recording condition. It reduces the red-eye phenomenon (eyes of the subject appear red in photo flash) by lighting the flash before the actual recording of the picture.

Use this when you take pictures of people in low lighting conditions.

: Forced ON

The flash is activated every time a picture is recorded forcibly.

Use this when your subject is back-lit or under fluorescent light.

: Slow sync./Red-eye reduction When you take a picture with a dark background landscape, it makes the shutter speed slow when the flash is activated, so that the dark background landscape will become bright. Simultaneously it reduces the red-eye phenomenon.

Use this when taking pictures of people with the dark background.

: Forced OFF

When you do not open the flash, this mode is set. Even in dark places, the flash is not activated.

Use this when taking pictures in places where use of the flash is not allowed.
