Flicker Reduction
The Photo Shooting Menu Flicker Reduction Option
Flicker reduction can detect icker at 100 and 120Hz (associ-
ated respectively with AC power supplies of 50 and 60Hz).
Flicker may not be detected or the desired results may not
be achieved with dark backgrounds, bright light sources, or
decorative lighting displays and other non-standard light-
ing. Depending on the light source, there may be a slight
delay before the shutter is released. During burst shooting,
the frame rate may slow or become erratic; in addition, the
desired results may not be achieved if the frequency of the
power supply changes during shooting.
Flicker detection will not take eect at shutter speeds slower
than
1
/
100
s (including Bulb and Time) or when MUP is selected
for release mode or exposure delay mode is on. Flicker de-
tection is available during ash photography but can not be
used with remote wireless ash units.
