Using the flash strobe
When the lighting is not sufficient for your shooting
environment, the flash can provide the extra light you
need.
Using the hot button
While in Digital Camera mode, pressing the Left button
allows you to switch the flash mode without entering the
options menu.
Pressing the hot button can cycle through three flash
modes - Auto, Force, Off.
Auto mode ( ):
When the flash is set to Auto mode,
the camera will automatically measure the lighting
condition, and the flash will be activated if needed.
A
Force mode ( ):
When the flash is set to Force
mode, the flash always fires no matter how the lighting
condition is.
Off (no icon):
The flash will not function when it is set
to Off.
‹
When the battery power is low (with only one gauge left), the
flash strobe cannot be activated due to insufficient power for
recharge.
‹
While the flash is being recharged, you cannot press the
shutter button to take pictures.
