Taking Pictures With On Camera Pop Up Flash
Taking flash pictures with the in-built flash unit of the Panasonic Lumix
FZ200 is essentially an automatic operation.
There is an option to adjust the output flash power in the semi-automatic
and full manual mode but not in the iA or iA+ modes.
Flash is only activated when you slide the release lever to the front of the
camera which allows the “cobra” style flash head to rise.
As the flash head is released the flash charging circuit is energised and
in the EVF, or on the image on the LCD, will be a Red Flashing lightning
symbol indicating that the unit is charging. The camera will not
release the shutter during this time. In the iA mode the flash will be set
according to the scene detection mode the camera identifies.
If it detects a face it will change to Auto Red-Eye reduction mode which
has an associated pre-flash in an attempt to close the pupils of the
subjects eyes to prevent the main flash burst picking up the red reflection
from the blood vessels at the back of the eye.
