that is very dark or very bright. If this happens, use the M mode to adjust the
aperture or shutter speed manually.
•“S Image AS” (page 92) does not work in the S mode and M mode. You can,
however, turn on “
A
Camera AS”, if you like.

setting. The ISO sensitivity setting cannot be changed while in the S mode.

Flash) or ¥ (Red Eye Reduction) is selected as the flash mode. If you want the
