Note on the Flash
When using the flash, reflections from dust particles in the air may appear as bright spots in images.
To reduce these reflections, set the flash to
W
(off).

The Flash Lamp
The flash lamp indicates flash status when the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway.
• On: Flash will fire when picture is taken.
• Blinks: Flash charging. Wait a few seconds and try again.
• Off: Flash will not fire when picture is taken.
If the battery is low, the monitor display will turn off, and
remain off, until the flash is fully charged.

The flash cannot be used simultaneously with certain functions. See “Camera Settings that Cannot
Be Applied Simultaneously” (
A

The flash mode setting applied in
A
(auto) mode is saved in the camera’s memory even after the
camera is turned off, and reapplied the next time
A
(auto) mode is selected.

Red-eye Reduction
This camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (In-Camera Red-Eye Fix). Pre-flashes are fired
repeatedly at low intensity before the main flash, reducing the red-eye effect. Additionally, if the
camera detects red eye while saving an image, the affected area will be processed to reduce red-eye
before the image is saved.
Note the followings when shooting.
• Because pre-flashes are fired, there is a slight lag between when the shutter-release button is
pressed and when the shutter is released.
• More time than usual is required to save images.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations.
• In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye may be affected by red-eye reduction
processing; in these cases, choose another flash mode and try again.
