,Set the mode switch to , and press v ( ) on the control button repeatedly to select a flash mode.

Each time you press v ( ), the indicator changes as follows.

No indicator (Auto): The flash automatically strobes when shooting images in a dark place. The factory setting is Auto.

(Forced flash): The flash strobes regardless of the surrounding brightness.

SL (Slow synchro): The flash strobes regardless of the surrounding brightness. The shutter speed is slow in a dark place, so you can clearly shoot the background that is out of flash light.

(No flash): The flash does not strobe regardless of the surrounding brightness.

•If the menu is currently displayed, press MENU first so that the menu disappears.

•When [ISO] is set to [Auto] in the menu, the recommended shooting distance using the flash is approx. 0.3 m to 1.5 m (11 7/8 inches to

59 1/8 inches) (W)/0.5 m to 1.5 m (19 3/4 inches to 59 1/8 inches) (T).

•You can change the brightness of the flash with (Flash Level) in the menu (page 55). (You cannot change the brightness of the flash while (Camera) is set to [Auto] in the menu.)

•When using the SL (Slow synchro) or (No flash) mode, the shutter speed becomes slower

in dark places. Be careful not to allow your hand to shake while holding the camera.

•While charging the flash, the /CHG lamp flashes. After the charging is complete, the

lamp goes out.

•This setting is maintained even when the power is turned off.
