Photography Using the Flash (Flash photography) (continued)

AUTO

[ ] Auto

In this mode, the flash fires automatically according to the photography conditions. This mode is ideal for general photography where you are not trying to achieve any particular effect.

[] Suppressed Flash

Use the Suppressed Flash mode when you are taking pictures in indoor lighting at distances too great for the flash to have any effect, such as theater performances or indoor sporting events.

[] Forced Flash

In this mode, the flash always fires. Use the Forced Flash mode to shoot pictures in artificial light (backlighting, fluorescent lighting, etc.).

[] Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to avoid the red-eye effect (➲ Additional Information, Glossary (Page 86)) when photographing people in low-light conditions.

The flash emits a pre-flash just before the picture is taken and then flashes again to take the actual picture. Red-eye is reduced more effectively if the camera is pointed at the line of sight of the subject at as close a distance as possible.
