memory even after the camera is turned off.

Availability depends on the setting. See “Default Settings (Flash, Self-timer, and Focus
Mode)” (A73) for more information.
C Auto with Red-eye Reduction/Red-eye Reduction
The red-eye reduction lamp glows before the main flash to reduce the red-eye effect.
Note the following when shooting:
• Because the red-eye reduction lamp glows, more time than usual is required until the
shutter is released after you press the shutter-release button.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some situations.
C Using a Speedlight (External Flash)
• The built-in flash does not fire when a Speedlight is attached. Make sure that the built-in
flash is lowered.
• Turn the camera off when attaching and detaching a Speedlight.
• The mode names and function names of Speedlights may differ from those of the built-in
flash.
• See “Speedlights (External Flash Units)” (A211) and refer to the documentation provided
with your Speedlight for more information.
