Camera movement warning (Auto, Red-eye reduction, Fill-in)
When
(camera shake warning) lights, the shutter speed locks at its
current level. This helps prevent camera movement problems (shutter
speeds that are too slow can cause blur). However, if the zoom
magnification is increased, the camera will increase the locked shutter
speed accordingly.

W (max.): 1/30 sec., T (max.): 1/250 sec.
TIPS
●
The flash may not give you the optimum result in macro mode, especially
with wide-angle shooting. Check the image on the monitor.

If a conversion lens is attached to the camera, the flash is disabled.
