Flash off
When you do not want to use the flash,
especially indoors where flash is
prohibited, or to capture the ambiance of
existing light, use the flash-off feature.
Use a tripod or place the camera on
another firm support, and use high-speed
film because the shutter speed in these
situations will most likely be slow.
Selecting the flash modes
1. Completely lift up the lens cover/
flash (2) to uncover the lens (7)
and to turn on the camera.
2. Repeatedly press
ENTER
(16) until
the fill-flash symbol (39) and flash
indicator (36), flash-off indicator (37),
or auto-flash symbol (38) and flash
indicator (36) with or without the red-
eye-reduction indicator (30) appears
on the LCD panel (23).
3. Frame your subject within the
viewfinder eyepiece (10).
4. Partially press down the shutter
button (1). When the flash/camera-
ready lamp (11) glows green, fully
press down the shutter button to take
the picture.
The fill-flash and flash-off modes
cancel when you turn off the camera,
select a different flash mode, or
when the camera powers down. The
auto-flash modes remain selected in
these instances.
