Using the flash in each capture mode

Using b(Shutter priority) Mode

When taking a moving subject, you can use the flash to change the blur effect.

Any desired shutter speed 1/150 sec. or slower can be set for taking a flash photograph.

The aperture automatically changes according to the ambient brightness.

Using Av (Aperture-priority) Mode

You can set the desired aperture to take a flash photograph when you want to change the depth of field or shoot any far away subject.

The shutter speed automatically changes with the ambient brightness.

The shutter speed shifts automatically anywhere from 1/150 sec. to a slow shutter speed that does not cause camera shake. The slowest shutter speed depends on the focal length of the lens in use.

The shutter speed is fixed at 1/150 sec when any lens other than FA J, FA or F is used.
