OTHER SHOOTING FUNCTIONS
Using the flash
The flash is used not only for taking pictures where there is insufficient light,
but also when the subject is in shade or in backlight conditions. Your camera
has four modes of operation (automatic flash mode, forced flash mode, flash
off mode, and red-eye reduction mode). The flash is available only when
shooting still images.

Set the camera to the still image
shooting mode (see page 35).
œ
The current flash mode is shown on
the LCD monitor.
No icon: The digital camera will detect
the subject brightness and use
the flash only when required.
In a backlight situation, if only
the center of the image is very
dark, the flash will operate to
compensate (auto flash).
d
: The flash will operate with every image captured regardless of the
conditions. Use this setting under backlight conditions, when the
subject is in shade, under fluorescent lighting conditions, etc.
(forced flash).
j
: The flash will not operate even in dark situations. Use this setting
when capturing an image in a location where flash photography is
prohibited, or when shooting a night landscape scene (flash off).
È
: The digital camera will detect the subject brightness and use the
flash only when required. At this time the flash will operate in a
manner that reduces the red reflection (“red-eye”) in the subject’s
eyes.
