Memo
•
The approximate range of the flash is 0.15 m to 4.5 m when not using the
3× optical zoom (wide-angle setting) and 0.4 m to 2.5 m when using the 3×
optical zoom (telephoto setting). If the subject is too far from the camera, it
will not be illuminated by the flash. Additionally, if the subject is too close to
the camera, exposure will not be correctly adjusted. Increase the sensitivity
(p.67) to extend the effective range of the flash.
•
You can also increase the ISO sensitivity setting to take pictures in dimly lit
locations without using the flash. When the sensitivity is increased, the
shutter speed also increases, making it easier to prevent camera shake and
blurring of the subject. However, you may notice increased noise, which
looks like a grainy pattern, in the picture (p.67).
