Flash modes
The flash can be used when taking still images. To
select the flash mode, press the flash mode button (1)
on the back of the camera until the desired mode is
displayed. Press the shutter-release button to set the
mode. 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. 55) is active, the flash
mode is reset to autoflash with red-eye reduction if
this mode was last set, if not the mode will be reset to
autoflash. While the flash is charging, the shutter
cannot be released.
Autoflash – the flash fires automatically in low-light
and backlit conditions.
Red-eye reduction – the flash fires multiple bursts
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.
