• Use of a tripod is recommended to avoid the effects of camera shake when
shooting in a dark location.
X
Fill flash
The flash fires when a picture is taken, regardless of how bright the subject is. Use to
“fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects.
Y
Slow sync
Fill flash is combined with a slow shutter speed. Suitable for portraits of human
subjects shot at night or under dim light. Flash illuminates main subject; slow
shutter speeds are used to capture background.
Z
Rear-curtain sync
Fill flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating the effect of a stream of light
behind moving subjects.
