B Shooting When the Flash is Disabled (W) or Lighting is Poor
Use of a tripod is recommended to stabilize the camera during shooting. Set Vibration
reduction (A 147) to Off from the setup menu (A139) when using a tripod to stabilize the
camera.
Pictures taken when the ISO sensitivity is increased may be slightly mottled.
Noise reduction may be performed for pictures taken at slow shutter speeds. More time than usual
is required to record pictures to which noise reduction is applied.
C The Flash Indicator
The flash indicator shows flash status when the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway.
On: Flash will fire when picture is taken.
Blinks: Flash charging. Wait a few seconds and try
again.
Off: Flash will not fire when picture is taken.
If the battery is low, the monitor will turn off, and remain
off, while the flash charges.
C Flash Mode Setting
The flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after the
camera is turned off, and reapplied the next time A (auto) mode is selected.
C Red-eye Reduction
This camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (“In-Camera Red-Eye Fix”). The flash fires repeatedly at
low intensity before the main flash, reducing red-eye. The camera then analyzes the picture; if red-
eye is detected, the affected area will be processed to further reduce red-eye before the picture is
saved. Note that because there is a slight lag between the shutter-release button being pressed and
the picture being taken, this mode is not recommended when a quick shutter response is required.
The time until the picture is stored also increases slightly. Advanced red-eye reduction may not
produce the desired results in all situations. In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye
may be affected by advanced red-eye reduction processing; in these cases, choose another flash
mode setting and try again.
