Note

objects may be discolored by its heat or lighting.
• Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to AUTO/
Red-eye reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.
• When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted
properly and the picture may become too bright or too dark.

when you press the shutter button fully.
• The White Balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.
• The flash effect may not be sufficient when using [FLASH BURST]
in Scene Mode or
when shutter speed is fast.
• It may take time to charge the flash if you are taking pictures in quick succession. Take a
picture after the access indication disappears.
• The Red-Eye Reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject is far away from the
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
• When the [CONVERSION]
is set to [
