The available flash range
Edges of a picture may become slightly dark if using flash at short distances without using
zoom (close to max. Wide). This may be remedied by using a little zoom.
Max. Wide Max. Tele
Approx. 0.6 m - 5.6 m (2.0 feet - 18 feet) Approx. 2.0 m - 2.9 m (6.6 feet - 9.5 feet)
• These ranges are obtained, the ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO], and [ISO Limit Set] is
set to [OFF].
●
Avoid doing the following, as the heat or light could cause deformation or discolouration.
• Putting the flash close to objects
• Covering the flash with your hand as it is firing

charged, the flash icon flashes red, and you cannot take a picture even when you fully press the
shutter button.
