Description
﹝ ﹞
Auto Flash
The flash fires automatically according to the ambient
conditions. Select this mode for general photography.
﹝
﹞
Red-eye Reduction
The flash emits a precursor-flash before the main flash
fires. This causes the pupil in the human eye to constrict,
reducing the red-eye. Select this mode when taking
pictures of people and animals in low-light conditions.
﹝ ﹞
Fill Flash on
The flash will always fire regardless of the surrounding
brightness. Select this mode for recording images with high
contrast (backlighting) and deep shadows. Also known as
forced flash.
﹝
﹞
Flash off
The flash will not fire. Select this mode when taking images
in a place where flash photography is prohibited, or when
the distance to the subject is beyond the effective range of
the flash.
