meter.] (p.220). Using the fill-in flash function, you can have the
subject’s face appear brighter.
In bright light, decrease the ISO speed. (a, f, s or d
mode)
If the exposure setting on the LCD monitor blinks, decrease the ISO
speed.
Detach the lens hood and keep at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away
from the subject.
If the lens has a hood attached or you are too close to the subject,
the bottom of the picture may look dark due to the obstructed flash.

sure the flash exposure looks natural (not dark at the bottom).
