• Do not stare at the photo flash from
close proximity.
• Do not bring the flash too close to
objects or close the flash while it is
activated. The objects may be
discolored by its heat or lighting.
• Do not cover the photo flash with your
fingers or any other items.
• The flash icon turns red when activating
the flash and pressing the shutter button
halfway.
• When you take a picture beyond the flash
control range, the exposure may not be
adjusted properly and the picture may
become bright or dark.
• When you repeat taking a picture,
recording may be disabled even if the
flash is activated. Take a picture after the
access indication disappears.
• When the jitter alert appears, we
recommend using the flash.
• When you set to burst mode or auto
bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for
every flash activated.
• When the flash is being charged, the flash
icon blinks red, and you cannot take a
picture even when you press the shutter
button fully.
• When taking a picture with the flash,
we recommend removing the lens
hood. In some cases it may not allow
the scene to be illuminated properly.
• Do not close the flash soon after the flash
is activated prior to taking pictures due to
AUTO/Red-eye reduction etc. It causes a
malfunction.
• When taking a picture with the flash, the
white balance will be automatically
adjusted [except for [
] (Daylight) and
[
] (Flash)], but the white balance may
not be properly adjusted if the flash level
is insufficient.
• When the shutter speed is fast, the flash
effect may not be sufficient.
• Refer to P97 for information about extra
flashes.
• When using a conversion lens, the built-in
flash setting is fixed to Forced OFF [
].
