A The Built-in Flash
The built-in flash has a minimum range of 0.6 m (2 ft) and can not be
used in the macro range of macro zoom lenses.
It can be used with
CPU lenses with focal lengths of 16–300 mm, although in some cases
the flash may be unable to entirely light the subject at some ranges or
focal lengths due to shadows cast by the lens.
The following
illustrations show the effect of vignetting caused by shadows cast by
the lens when the flash is used.
Shadow Vignetting
Remove lens hoods to prevent shadows.
