Flash Options 

 

The camera has a built in flash which is 
controlled by the camera itself. The flash has 
several modes, but the amount and the duration 
of the flash are automatic. The modes available 
are Auto, Forced (fill in), Anti Red Eye and off. 
 
The different flash modes are available in each of 
the shooting modes (P, A and S). All flash modes 
are selected on the LCD display 
 
Auto 
 
This mode means that the flash will come on as 
and when needed. This is the default setting. 
There is no indication in the top control panel 
(this means that auto is set). 
 
Forced (fill in) 
 
This mode would be used when you are shooting 
with enough available light, but perhaps the 
subject is in shade. 
 
Anti Redeye 
 
This mode attempts to avoid the “devil eye” 
effect. The camera gives out a burst of rapid 
flashes followed by a larger, longer flash. 

This 

burst of flashes could be a problem with people 
suffering from epilepsy.
