Flash Mode Description
[ ] Automatic flash
The flash fires automatically according to the environmental lighting
conditions.
Select this mode for general photography.
[ ] Red-eye reduction
The flash emits a precursory flash before the main flash fires. This causes
the pupil in the eye to constrict, reducing the red-eye phenomenon.
Select this mode when taking images of people and animals in low-light
conditions.
[ ] Fill flash (on)
The flash will always fire regardless of the surrounding brightness.
Select this mode for recording images with high contrast (backlighting)
and deep shadows.
[ ] Flash off
The flash will not fire.
Select this mode when taking images in a place where flash photography
is prohibited, or when the distance to the subject is beyond the effective
range of the flash.
