2. Use the Select dial to choose “CAMERA

select dial.
The menu screen for setting camera functions will

You can check the condition of flash function by
reviewing the on-screen information. No indication
will appear when “FLASH AUTO” is specified.
Tip:
When the subject brightness is low with flash set to "AUTO" (automatically emits light), a flash
mark (
) will appear on the screen when the PHOTO button is pressed half or all the way in.
Cautions:
Flash automatically adjusts the amount of light to be emitted, but if the distance to subject is too far or
too near, the light amount adjustment may not be sufficient. The distance to subject that allows
optimum light amount adjustment varies depending on the subject, but is approximately 1.8 - 9.0 feet
(0.5 - 2.5 m).
Set flash to "OFF" for macro still recording. When the subject is too near, white compression could occur.
