The flash mode can be changed in the basic section of
the recording-mode menu (p. 80). For the flash to fire,
the unit must be manually lifted.The flash will fire in the
selected mode regardless of the amount of ambient
light. When the flash is used, the camera sensitivity is
automatically set between ISO 100 and 200.This set-
ting can be changed using the function dial (p. 48). The
auto-white-balance setting will give priority to the flash’s
color temperature. If preset or custom white-balance
settings are used, priority is given to the active setting’s
color temperature.
Fill-flash can be used as the main or sup-
plementary light. In low-light conditions, the
flash will act as the main source of illumina-
tion and overpower the ambient light. Under
strong sunlight or in backlit situations, the
fill-flash can reduce harsh shadows.

Red-eye reduction is used when taking photographs of people or animals in low-light conditions. The
red-eye effect is caused by light reflected from the retina of the eye.The camera will fire a pre-flash
before the main flash to contract the pupils of the subject’s eyes.
