Reducing Flicker
N
If you shoot an image with a fast shutter speed under a light source
such as fluorescent light, the blinking of the light source causes flicker
and the image may be vertically unevenly exposed. If continuous
shooting is used under these conditions, uneven exposures or colors
across the images may result. This feature enables the camera to
detect the flickering frequency and take pictures when exposure and
colors are less affected by flickering.

button.
z
The picture will be taken with reduced
unevenness of exposure or color tone
caused by the flicker.
o
With [Enable] set, the shutter-release time lag is longer when you shoot
under a flickering light source. Also, the continuous shooting speed may
become slower, and the shooting interval may become irregular.
o
Flicker at a frequency other than 100 Hz or 120 Hz cannot be detected.
Also, if the flickering frequency of the light source changes during
continuous shooting, effects of the flicker cannot be reduced.
