Picture mode
Automatic flash activation with slower shutter speeds
To simultaneously create more appropriate, i.e. brighter,
reproduction of dark backgrounds and as a fill in flash for the
foreground. To minimize the risk of blurring, the shutter speed is
not extended beyond
1
/
30
s in the other modes with flash activation.
For pictures where the flash is used, this means that objects in the
background, which the flash cannot reach, are often badly under
exposed.
To take account of the available ambient light, the required longer
exposure times (up to 30s) are allowed in these picture situations.
Notes:
• Depending on the
AUTO ISO SETTINGS, it is possible that the
camera will not support slower shutter speeds as in such cases
increasing the ISO sensitivity takes priority.
• The
Slowest Speed setting can be used if required.
Automatic flash and pre-flash activation with slower shutter
speeds
For a combination of the situations and functions described above.
Note:
To prevent blurred pictures with the slower shutter speeds in
and
modes, you should hold the camera steady, i.e. support
it or use a tripod. Alternatively, you can select a higher sensitivity.
Flash range
The usable flash range depends on the aperture and sensitivity
values set manually or calculated by the camera. To ensure that the
flash light provides sufficient illumination, it is essential that the
main subject is within the relevant flash range.
