mode (P.34). The active flash mode
is displayed in the top left corner of
the LCD monitor.When the camera
is turned off and auto reset (p. 52)
is active, the flash mode is reset to autoflash with red-eye reduc-
tion if this mode was last set, if not the mode will be reset to aut-
oflash.While the flash is charging, flash mode indicator on the
LCD monitor turns red with the shutter-release button pressed
partway down and the shutter cannot be released.

the parallax between lens and flash. In these situations flash can-
cel is recommended.
