“C”-dial to select the flash mode desired.
NORMAL FLASH
When you lift up the built-in flash, you can use your camera with Normal Flash.
Please use this mode for ordinary photography.
RED-EYE REDUCTION FLASH
When you take a picture with flash, sometimes the person’s eyes reflect the
flashlight and the “redeye” phenomenon will appear in the picture.
In order to avoid this effect, the red-eye reduction lamp lights approx.1sec before
the main flash fires, this reduces the effect of the “redeye” phenomenon in the
picture.
■ Depending on the lighting and subject conditions, the Redeye Reduction flash
may not completely eliminate the redeye in all cases.
C1～C3 WIRELESS TTL FLASH MODE
It is possible to take pictures with Wireless TTL Flash Mode, if you use the
optional external flash SIGMA EF SUPER series (only this Flash Type is
compatible with wireless flash photography). Please refer to the Instruction
Manual of the DG SUPER SA-STTL for more details.
