Description
AUTO FLASH
The flash fires automatically according to suit the
photographic conditions.
RED EYE
Use this mode to reduce the red-eye phenomenon when
you want to take natural-looking photographs of people
and animals in low-light conditions. When taking
photographs, the red-eye phenomenon can be reduced
by asking the subject (person) to look at the digital
camera or get as close to the digital camera as possible.
FORCED FLASH
The flash will always fire regardless of the surrounding
brightness. Select this mode for recording images with
high contrast (backlighting) and deep shadows.
NO FLASH
Use this mode in the environment that the flash use is
prohibited or under the situation that the distance to the
subject is too far away for the flash to have any effect.
