•When the flash is being charged, the flash
icon blinks red, and you cannot take a
picture even when you press the shutter
button fully.
•The white balance may not be properly
adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for
the subject. (P60)
•When the shutter speed is fast, the flash
effect may not be sufficient.
•It may take time to charge the flash if you
repeat taking a picture. Take a picture
after the access indication disappears.
•The red-eye reduction effect differs
between people. Also, if the subject was
far away from the camera or was not
looking at the first flash, the effect may not
be evident.
•When the flash is activated, you can only
take 1 picture.
