Using the flash

The flash is used not only for taking pictures where there is insufficient light, but also when the subject is in shade or in backlight conditions. Your camera has three modes of operation (automatic flash mode, forced flash mode, and flash off mode). The flash is available only when shooting still images.

k: The camera will detect the
subject brightness and use the
flash only when required. In a
backlight situation, if only the
center of the image is very dark,
the flash will operate to
compensate (auto flash).
m: The flash will operate with every
image captured regardless of
the conditions. Use this setting
under backlight conditions,
when the subject is in shade,
under fluorescent lighting
conditions, etc. (forced flash).
