The flash fires regardless of available light.

 

 

Fill in flash

The intensity of the flash will be controlled, according to the

 

prevailing conditions. The brighter the background or subject is,

 

 

 

 

the less intense the flash will be.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The flash will operate in conjunction with a slow shutter speed in

 

 

order to obtain the correct exposure. We recommend using a

 

Slow synchro

tripod for this function. When you take an image in a condition with

 

 

poor light, the camera shake warning indicator (

) will display

 

 

on the LCD monitor.

 

Flash off

The flash does not fire. Select this mode when capturing images in a place or situation where flash photography is prohibited. When you capture an image in a poorly lit condition, the camera shake

warning indicator ( ) will display on the LCD monitor.

In poor light conditions, Safety Flash will help you get a good
