Flash cancel - the flash will not fire. Use flash
cancel when flash photography is prohibited, natural
light is desired to illuminate the subject, or the
subject is beyond the flash range. The camera-
shake warning may appear when flash cancel is
selected (p. 31).
Red-eye reduction - the flash fires twice before the
main flash burst to reduce red-eye; an effect caused
by light reflected from the retina. Use in low-light
conditions when taking photographs of people or
animals. The pre-flashes contract the pupils of the
subject’s eyes.
FLASH MODES
To set the flash mode, simply press the flash mode button (1) on
the back of the camera until the desired mode is displayed.
Autoflash - the flash fires automatically in low-light and backlit
conditions.
Fill-flash - the flash fires with each exposure regardless of the
amount of ambient light. Fill-flash can be used to reduce harsh
shadows caused by strong direct light or sunshine.
