In red-eye reduction mode, the shutter will be released approximately one second after the
initial red-eye reduction pre-flash. Do not move the camera until shooting is complete. Also
note that red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some conditions.
The fastest shutter speed available when the flash fires is 1/250s. Bright backgrounds in
pictures taken with the flash may be overexposed.
The flash sync speed for silent modes (P.198), High Res Shot (P.239), and focus bracketing
(P.278) is 1/100s. Furthermore, combining [KISO] values over ISO 16000 with settings that
use an electronic shutter (for example, silent mode or focus bracket shooting) sets the flash
sync speed to 1/50s. The flash sync speed is also set to 1/50s during ISO bracketing (P.275).
Even the minimum available flash output may be too bright at short range. To prevent
overexposure in pictures taken at short range, select mode A or M and choose a smaller
aperture (higher f-number) or choose a lower setting for [KISO].
