Bounce Flash
By pointing the flash head toward a wall or ceiling, the flash will bounce off
the surface before illuminating the subject. This can soften shadows behind
the subject for a more natural-looking shot. This
is
called bounce flash.

Hold down the
<PUSH>
button and turn the flash head.
If the flash coverage
is
set automatically, the flash coverage will be set to
50mm.

can also set the flash coverage manually_
$ If the wall
or
ceiling is too far
away,
the bounced flash might be too weak and result
in
underexposure.
*'
The wall or ceiling should be a plain, white color for high reflectance. If the bounce
surface is not white, a color cast may result
in
the picture.

After you take the shot, if the flash exposure confirmation lamp does not light, use a
larger aperture opening and try again.
