Taking a picture in a dark place
• If the subject is too close, the ISO sensitivity
is high, or the exposure value is too large or
small, the adjustment effect will be reduced.
• The Flash Brightness Adjustment function is
not available in some shooting modes.
• If an external fl ash unit has a fl ash control
function, the light control value of the
external fl ash is applied when you connect it
to the camera.
• If the distance from the subject is quite
close when taking images by using the
built-in fl ash, part of the images may appear
dark as the lens is interfered with the fl ash
light. Please check the distance between
camera and subject when taking pictures.
The distance interfered with fl ash light may
vary by the type of lens in use.
• If you've installed a lens hood, the hood
can block light from the built-in fl ash. Please
remove the lens hood when using the built-
in fl ash.
