• We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in dark
surroundings.
X

Flash fires whenever a picture is taken. Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and
backlit subjects.
Y
Slow sync
Auto flash mode is combined with slow shutter speed.
Suited to evening and night portraits that include background scenery.
Flash illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture
background at night or under dim lighting.
C The Flash Mode Setting
• The setting varies with the shooting mode. See “Available Features” (A 55) and “Default Settings”
(A 69) for more information.
• Some settings cannot be used with other functions (A 73).
• The flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is saved in the camera’s memory even after the
camera is turned off.
C Red-eye Reduction
his camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (In-Camera Red-Eye Fix). If the camera detects red
eye while saving an image, the affected area will be processed to reduce red-eye before the image is
saved.
Note the followings when shooting.
• More time than usual is required to save images.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some situations.
• In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye may be affected by red-eye reduction
processing; in these cases, select another flash mode and try again.
