AUTO FLASH
The flash fires automatically according to the photographic conditions.

This mode can reduce the red-eye phenomenon when you want to capture
natural-looking images of people and animals in low-light conditions.
When capturing images, the red-eye phenomenon can be reduced by asking
the subject (person) to look at the camera lens or get as close to the camera
as possible.

The flash will not fire. Select this mode in a place where flash photography
is prohibited, or when the distance to the subject is beyond the effective
range of the flash.
