Shooting
When shooting with a high ISO sensitivity and using the
flash, there is more of a chance of overexposure the
closer you are to the subject.
Some settings are not available with certain Shooting
modes. Please refer to
Functions Available in Each
Shooting Mode
(p. 224).
The flash fires twice. A pre-flash will fire and will be
followed by the main flash. The pre-flash is used by the
camera to obtain the subject’s exposure data so that the
main flash can be set to the optimal intensity for the
shot.
The fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/
500 second. The camera automatically resets the
shutter speed to 1/500 second if a faster speed is
selected.
The flash fires with automatic adjustments when
shooting in modes other than the
mode. When
shooting in
mode, the flash fires with the manually
set adjustments.
•In
mode, the [Flash Output] option can be changed
(p. 112).
• Shots cannot be taken while the flash is charging.
The flash may take up to approximately 10 seconds to
charge in some cases. Actual times will vary according
to usage and the battery charge.
The flash setting is saved when the camera is turned off
in the
