FLASH RANGE - AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The camera automatically controls the flash output. For well-exposed images, the subject must be
within the flash range. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens’
wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.The flash range can be changed with camera
sensitivity (ISO), see page 51.
Wide-angle position Telephoto position
FLASH SIGNALS
The flash mode indicator of the LCD monitor indicates the flash status, when the shutter-
release button is pressed partway down. While the flash is charging, the shutter cannot be
released.

Flash mode indicator
When the LCD monitor displays live image only, a red flash mode indicator will appear on the LCD
monitor to indicate the flash is charging, when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down.
When the LCD monitor is off or turns off because of the battery is too low, the flash/access lamp next
to the card slot will indicate the status of the flash, when the shutter-release button is pressed part-
way down.When the lamp is red and blinks quickly, the flash is charging.
When the subject distance is closer than 20 cm (0.66 ft.) at the wide-angle setting, exposure may not
be even because of the parallax between the lens and flash.We reccomend that you use flash can-
cel in this case, see page 37.
