<Operation>

1Press the “” button to select the desired flash mode.

Display appearance when the “red-eye reduction” mode is selected.

2Press the shutter release button to take the picture.

<NOTE>

If the caution LED flashes when the shutter release button is depressed halfway, it indicates that a slow shutter speed will be selected (low light conditions); in this case, use of a tripod is recommended to prevent camera shake.

After taking a picture using the flash, it will be recharged. The caution LED flashes while recharging. In the Flash-off mode, the flash never fire, therefore neither recharging of the flash nor flashing of the caution LED happens.
