∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢1 It may vary depending on the [MIN. SHTR SPEED] setting. (P143)
¢2 When [MIN. SHTR SPEED] is set to [AUTO]. (P143)
• Refer to P83 for details about the Aperture-Priority AE, Shutter-Priority AE, and Manual
Exposure.
• ¢2: The shutter speed becomes a maximum of 1 second in the following cases.
– When the Optical Image Stabilizer is set to [OFF].
– When the camera has determined that there is very little jitter when the Optical Image
Stabilizer is set to [MODE1], [MODE2] or [AUTO].
• In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
• In Scene Mode, shutter speed will be different from the above table.
Note
•
Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The
objects may be discoloured 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.
• When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted
properly and the picture may become too bright or too 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.
• The White Balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.
• The flash effect may not be sufficient when using [FLASH BURST] (P101) in Scene Mode or
when shutter speed is fast.
• It may take time to charge the flash if you are taking pictures in quick succession. Take a
picture after the access indication disappears.
• The Red-Eye Reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject is far away from the
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
• When the [CONVERSION] (P150) is set to [ ], the flash is fixed to [Œ].
• When the external flash is installed, it will be prioritised. See P199 for more information on the
external flash.
