Flash Lamp
• When the orange flash lamp blinks rapidly, the flash is charging. Wait
until it glows steadily then take the picture.
• The flash takes approximately six seconds to charge.
• When the orange flash lamp blinks slowly, your scene is too dark for a
hand-held picture. Use the flash, or place your camera on a tripod.
Flash Range
The range of the built-in flash depends on the film speed and the focal length you are using.
To ensure proper exposure, make sure your subject is positioned within the flash range.
• In close-up mode, the minimum flash distance is 0.4m.
