Do not move the camera until the second flash fires.

xUsing the flash frequently will reduce the life of the battery.

xUnder normal operating conditions the re-charging time for the

flash is usually within 4 seconds. If the battery is weak, the charging time will be longer.

xIn the DIS mode, Landscape, Close up, Text, Sunset, Dawn, Firework scene modes and the Movie mode, the flash function will not operate.

xTake photographs within the flash range.

xThe image quality is not guaranteed if the subject is too close or highly reflective.

xWhen taking an image in poorly lit conditions with the flash, there may be a white speck in the captured image. The speck is caused by the flash light reflecting off atmospheric dust.
