Recording
∫ The available flash range
•
The available flash range is an approximation.
¢1 When the [ISO Limit Set] (P138) is set to [AUTO].
∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢2 When [Sensitivity] is set to [AUTO]. The shutter speed may vary depending on the [ISO Limit Set]
setting.
• In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
• In Scene Mode, the shutter speeds will differ from those described above.
Note
•
When recording with the flash, white saturation can occur if the subject is too close. If [Highlight] of
the [Setup] menu is set to [ON], regions of white saturation will blink black and white when you play
back or use Auto Review. In this case, we recommend that you adjust [Flash Adjust.] (P145) in the
minus direction and record the pictures again.
• Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The objects may be
discolored by its heat or lighting.
• Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to AUTO/Red-Eye
Reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.
• Recording a subject from too close, or without sufficient flash will not provide the appropriate level of
exposure, and may result in a picture that is too white or dark.
• When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even when
you press the shutter button fully.
• If recording a subject without sufficient flash, the White Balance may not be properly adjusted.
• The flash effect may not be sufficient when shutter speed is fast.
• It may take time to charge the flash if you repeat taking a picture. Take a picture after the access
indication disappears.
• The Red-Eye Reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
• Flash is fixed to [Œ] when the [Conversion] (P145) is set to [ ] or [ ].
