• Super FP flash
Super FP flash is available with the FL-50R or FL-36R. You can use the Super FP flash
even where normal flashes cannot be used with high shutter speed. Fill-in flash shooting
with the aperture open (such as in outdoor portrait shooting) is also possible with Super FP
flash. For details, refer to the external flash’s manual.
Flash mode setting
The camera sets the flash mode according to various factors such as firing pattern and flash
timing. Available flash modes depend on the exposure mode.
Auto flash AUTO
The flash fires automatically in low light or backlight conditions.
To shoot a subject with backlighting, position the AF target over the subject.

Red-eye reduction flash
!
/
H
In the red-eye reduction flash mode, a series of pre-flashes are emitted just before the
regular flash fires. This helps accustom the subject’s eyes to the bright light and minimizes
the red-eye phenomenon. In
S / M mode, the flash always fires.

Notes
• After the pre-flashes, it takes about 1 second before the shutter is released. Hold the camera
firmly to avoid camera shake.
• Effectiveness may be limited if the subject is not looking directly at pre-flashes, or if the
shooting range is too far. Individual physical characteristics may also limit effectiveness.
Slow synchronization (1st curtain)
#
SLOW
The slow synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally, when shooting
with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to prevent camera shake. But
when shooting a subject against a night scene, fast shutter speeds can make the background
too dark. Slow synchronization allows you to capture both the background and the subject.
Since the shutter speed is slow, be sure to stabilize the camera by using a tripod so as not to
cause the picture to be blurred.
Slow synchronization (2nd curtain)
#
SLOW2/2nd CURTAIN
Usually, the flash fires the moment (immediately after) the shutter opens (1st curtain). In this
mode, however, the flash fires immediately before the shutter closes. 2nd curtain flash fires
just before the shutter closes. Changing the flash timing can create interesting effects in your
picture, such as expressing the movement of a car by showing the tail-lights streaming
backwards. The slower the shutter speed, the better the effects turn out.
In S / M mode, the
flash always fires.

While using slow synchronization with flash shooting, you can also use this function to
achieve red-eye reduction.
