d Setting the Flash (Intelligent Flash)
Flash photography is useful for taking pictures at night or
indoor dark locations. Choose from 6 flash modes
according to the type of shot. See p.63 for information on
the available Photography modes.
MEMO
By calculating subject distance and brightness, the
camera automatically adjusts the flash amount and
sensitivity to suit shooting conditions. This maintains
consistent balance of bright/dark areas across the image
in low-light conditions (dimly-lit room, etc). The Intelligent
Flash feature guarantees consistent results when using
the flash.
MEMO
When pressing the shutter button down halfway, b
appears on the LCD monitor before the flash fires.
Use this mode for ordinary photography.
The flash fires as required by the shooting conditions.
MEMO Red-eye effect
When using the flash to take a picture of people in low-
light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the
picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting
off the inside of the eye.
Use this mode in backlit scenes, or to get the correct
colors when taking a picture under bright lighting.
In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark
conditions.
This mode is suitable for situations where the flash cannot
be used.
