Automatic Built-in Flash
In the Basic Zone (other than < > and < >), the flash pops up automatically and fires in
low-light conditions or backlit daylight conditions. Press the flash back down when you are
finished using it.
● If the CF card becomes full, the CF Full message “ ” appears on the
LCD panel and in the viewfinder, and the camera will not take any more
pictures. Replace the CF card with another CF card that has capacity available.
● When the in-focus indicator <●> is blinking, the camera will not take pictures.
(→59, 137)
● The focus and exposure are locked when AF focusing is complete.
● The camera automatically focuses on the AF point that is on the subject closest
to the camera.

“
” (→135) appears on the LCD panel. When this occurs, set the Main
Switch to <OFF> and then set it to <ON> again.
● To take pictures in an area where flash photography is prohibited or using indoor
lighting, the <

down halfway causes the AF-assist beam
emitter to light. The AF-assist beam helps the
AF function.
● The built-in AF-assist beam’s maximum range is 3.8 meters /12.5 ft.
● When an EX-series external Canon Speedlite (optional) is used, the AF-assist
beam will be emitted either by the camera or external Speedlite depending on the
shooting conditions.
