TAKING PICTURES USING THE BUILT-IN FLASH
Advanced
Photography

4
Check that the “
p
” (ready light) is displayed in
the viewfinder.
5
Bear in mind the composition, focus and effective flash range when taking pictures.
●
!
If the “
p
” (ready light) flashes for about 3 seconds after the shutter is released, this is a warning that the flash
fired at full power and the shot may be underexposed. Play the image back to check it. If you decide to retake
the shot, check the shooting distance, aperture, flash control range, etc. again before shooting.
●
!
If the subject is dark, the auxiliary AF-Assist illuminator fires to set the focus. See P.41 for details.
●
!
When you use the flash, shots are not taken continuously when the release mode is set to Continuous
Shooting.
●
!
If the built-in flash is charging, camera-shake correction is not performed on a VR lens while the shutter button
is pressed down halfway.
●
!
If you take a number of continuous shots with the built-in
flash, the “
p
” (ready light) may take a few moments to
light.
●
!
The shutter cannot be released unless “
p
” appears
without blinking in the viewfinder.

Set exposure mode and confirm shutter speed
and aperture.
The effective range of the built-in flash varies depending on the ISO sensitivity and aperture
settings used. Refer to the table below.
✽
Shutter speeds faster than the synchronized speed (1/125 sec.) cannot be set. When “125” appears in the
viewfinder display and the specified shutter speed flashes on the display panel, the actual shutter speed is
1/125 sec.
✽
The shooting distance is determined by the ISO setting and the aperture. For the “
A
” and “
M
” exposure modes,
see the table below.
✽
For the “
P
” exposure mode, the widest aperture that can be set by the camera varies depending on the ISO
setting. See P.69.
