A The Built-in Flash
If additional lighting is required for correct exposure in i mode, the
built-in flash will pop up automatically when the shutter-release
button is pressed halfway (0 45).
If the flash is raised, photographs

again.

closed position by pressing it gently downward till the latch clicks
into place.

on the lens focal length scale to zoom in, shorter focal
