The camera has four flash modes (default setting is Auto Flash). Use
the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy
shadows.
Display Option Description
A
Auto
The flash fires automatically as needed. Use this
setting to take most pictures.
Flash Off
The flash does not fire. Use this setting for outdoor
pictures or where flash is prohibited or may be
distracting. Use when shooting toward a reflective
surface, such as a window or mirror. If you do not
have enough light when using this setting, your
pictures will be too dark.
Always On
The flash fires for every picture. Use this setting in
high-contrast situations to provide flash or use it
indoors in low light.
Red-eye Reduction
The flash fires a few times before taking your picture
to reduce the red-eye phenomenon.
NOTE:
• Flash modes are only used in still image shooting.
• Never touch or block the flash with your fingers.
