Takes brighter pictures such as pictures of subjects against a
nightscape by decreasing the shutter speed when firing a flash.
• Ideal for taking pictures of people against a nightscape.
• Using a slower speed can cause motion blur. We
recommend using a tripod.
: Forced Flash Off
Always takes pictures without flash under all recording
conditions.
• Ideal for taking pictures where the use of flash is
prohibited.
• This item is available only when using an external flash.

This is available only when [Wireless] in the [Flash] is set to [OFF] and [Firing Mode] is set to [TTL].
• Some flash modes may not be available depending on the external flash settings.
The flash is activated twice. The interval between the first and second flash is
longer when [ ] or [ ] is set. The subject should not move until the second
flash is activated.
• The red-eye reduction effect varies depending on the subject and is affected by factors
such as distance from the subject and whether the subject is looking at the camera
during the preliminary flash. In some cases, red-eye reduction may be negligible.
