Lowering the Built-in Flash
To save power when the flash is not in use,
press it gently downward until the latch
clicks into place. Do not use force. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in prod-
uct malfunction.

Using the Built-in Flash
The built-in flash can be used in auto photo mode and when P, S, A, M,
Night portrait, Backlighting, Soft, Miniature effect, or Selective
color is selected in creative mode. If the flash is fired multiple times in
quick succession, the flash and shutter may be temporarily disabled to
protect the flash. Shooting can be resumed after a brief pause.
Objects close to the camera may be overexposed in photographs taken
with the flash at high ISO sensitivities.
To avoid vignetting, remove lens hoods and shoot at ranges of at least
0.6 m (2 ft). Some lenses may cause vignetting at greater distances or
obstruct the red-eye reduction lamp, interfering with red-eye reduc-
tion. The following illustrations show the effect of vignetting caused by
shadows cast by the lens when the built-in flash is used.
