•If you press the shutter button halfway when the flash is activated, the flash icon turns red.

•When the jitter alert appears, we recommend using a tripod.

•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 taking a picture with the flash, the white balance is automatically adjusted

[except for [ ] (Daylight)]. However, the white balance may not be properly

adjusted if the flash level is insufficient. (P60)

•When the shutter speed is fast, the flash effect may not be sufficient.

•If you repeat taking a picture, it may not actually be taken even if the flash is activated. 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.

•When you set burst mode or auto bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for every flash activated.
