In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.

In Advanced Scene Mode and Scene Mode, the shutter speeds will differ from those described above.

Note

Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The objects may be discoloured by its heat or lighting.

Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to AUTO/ Red-Eye Reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.

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.

When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even when you press the shutter button fully.

The White Balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.

The flash effect may not be sufficient when using [FLASH BURST] in Scene Mode or when shutter speed is fast.

When taking a picture with the flash, we recommend removing the lens hood. In some cases it may not allow the scene to be illuminated properly.

It may take time to charge the flash if you repeat taking a picture. Take a picture after the access indication disappears.

The Red-Eye Reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.

Flash is fixed to [Œ] when the [CONVERSION] (P127) is set to [ ] or [ C ].
