NOTES:
Do not fire the flash at a person at short range.
In Multi-Analyser 4 or Multi-Analyser 9, the flash is disabled (
pg. 16, 17).
The flash does not fire when the battery remaining power is low. Moreover, the flash does not fire when it is
set to “AUTO” in the Menu Screen with GAIN UP set to “OFF” (
pg. 19) and with Programme AE with
special effects set to “TWILIGHT” (
pg. 25).
When taking several snapshots in succession (Motor Drive Mode), the flash fires only during the first one.
Although images shot with a flash tend to look whiter than they actually are, to compensate for this the
camcorder automatically darkens the picture when using the flash. When shooting a subject at a distance
where the flash light cannot reach (over approx. 2 m), push down the flash to prevent the picture from
becoming too dark.
When using a conversion lens, keep the flash pushed down as the flash sensor will be blocked by the lens.
The colour tone changes depending on the background lighting conditions, such as under fluorescent or
halogen lamps.
To change the brightness of the flash,
“Flash Brightness Adjustment” (
pg. 23).
While charging the flash, blinks and the flash will not fire. Although noise may appear, this is not a
malfunction and is not recorded. It can take up to 10 seconds to charge the flash.
