Ⅵ Slow synchronization: SLOW
Regardless of the shutter speed, the flash fires right after the shutter fully
opens.
Ⅵ Slow synchronization with red-eye reduction: SLOW
This is for when you want to use slow synchronization yet also reduce red-
eye. For instance, when shooting a person against a brightly lit night
background. A normal flash might make the person’s eyes red, but slow
synchronization with red-eye reduction lets you capture the background
correctly and reduce red-eye at the same time.
Slow synchronization SLOW SLOW
The slow synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally,
when shooting with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to
prevent camera movement. But when shooting a night scene background, fast
shutter speeds can make the background too dark. Slow synchronization flash
allows both a slow shutter speed for the background and a flash for the subject.
Since the shutter speed is slow, make sure you stabilize the camera by using a
tripod. Otherwise, camera movement may cause the image to be blurred.
In S and M modes, the flash fires at the selected shutter speed.
Flash off
The flash does not fire even in low light conditions. Use this mode in
situations where flash photography is not desired or is prohibited. You can
also use this mode when you want to shoot a natural-looking twilight or night
scene.
