Built-in flash

When the button is pressed, the flash is activated and the picture will be recorded. Use the Built-in flash in order to record still pictures in dark places.

Each time the icon is selected, the indication changes by one setting in the following order:

ß([ON]) # ßA ([AUTO]) # ([OFF])

The unit automatically determines if the flash is necessary even when it has been set to by

detecting the ambient brightness. (If it determines that the flash is necessary, the indication lights up in red.)

To adjust the brightness of the flash

MENU : [PICTURE] # [FLASH LEVEL] # desired setting

ßi: Much brighter

ßd0: Normal

ßj: Less bright

If the ß indication etc. flashes when the button is pressed halfway, the flash is not activated.

Do not use with Filter Kit (optional) or Conversion Lens (optional) attached.

The available range of the flash is approx. 1.5 m (4.9 feet) in dark places.

Red-eye Reduction

Reduces the phenomena where human eyes become red from flashes.

The flash is activated 2 times.

The red-eye phenomenon tends to appear in certain recording conditions and more with some people than with others.

When faces are detected in the Intelligent Auto Mode or Intelligent Auto Plus Mode, the Red-eye Reduction is set to on.
