Shutter speed when using the flash (Auto-flash, red-eye

When
#
(camera movement warning) lights, the shutter speed
locks at its current level. This helps prevent camera shake
problems (shutter speeds that are too slow can cause blur).
However, if the zoom magnification is increased, the camera will
increase the locked shutter speed accordingly.
• The flash does not fire in the following situations:
In
n
mode, during auto bracketing, during super-macro
shooting, when FUNCTION is set to WHITE BOARD/BLACK
BOARD, and during Panorama shooting
• The flash may not give you the optimum result in macro mode,
especially with wide-angle shooting. Check the resulting picture on
the monitor.
• If a conversion lens is attached to the camera, do not use the flash.
