Auto (default setting)
AF-assist illumination will be used to assist the focus operation when the subject is
poorly lit. The illuminator has a range of about 10 m (32 ft.) at the maximum wide-
angle position and about 3.5 m (11 ft.) at the maximum telephoto position.
However, note that for some focus areas or scene modes, the AF-assist illuminator
may not light even if Auto is set.

Disable this function. The camera may be unable to focus if lighting is poor.

Pre-flash on (default setting)
The flash repeatedly fires pre-flashes at low intensity before the main flash to reduce
the red-eye effect, and it then performs the red-eye reduction process using picture
compensation.
The time from when the shutter-release button is pressed to when the shutter is
actually released is longer than normal.
Pre-flash off
Pre-flashes will not fire. The shutter is released immediately when the shutter-release
button is fully pressed, and the red-eye reduction process is performed using picture
compensation.
