Shooting – The Basics
z
Shooting procedures are the same as for the
mode (p. 33).
When shooting with a high ISO sensitivity
and using the flash, there is more of a
chance of overexposure the closer you are
to the subject.
z
When shooting in any mode other than
mode, the flash fires with automatic
adjustments.
z
The flash fires twice. A pre-flash will fire
and will be followed by the main flash.
The pre-flash is used by the camera to
obtain the subject’s exposure data so
that the main flash can be set to the
optimal intensity for the shot.
z
In
mode, the flash fires with the
manually set adjustments.
z
The fastest shutter speed for flash
synchronization is 1/500 second. The
camera automatically resets the shutter
speed to 1/500 second if a faster speed
is selected.
z
In
mode, the [Flash Output] option
can be changed (p. 86).
z
Shots cannot be taken while the flash is
charging.
z
The flash may take up to approximately
10 seconds to charge in some cases.
Actual times will vary according to usage
and the battery charge.
z
The flash setting is saved when the
camera is turned off in the ,
,
and
Shooting modes.
Setting the Red-eye Reduction
Function
The red-eye reduction lamp fires when the
flash is used in dark areas. This reduces light
reflecting back from the eyes and making
them appear red.
