If a subject or background is dark, the camera flash will work
automatically and will reduce the red-eye effect by using the red-eye
reduction function.
The flash will operate in conjunction with a slow shutter speed in
order to obtain the correct exposure. We recommend using a 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.
The flash fires regardless of available light.
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 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.
