Suggestions/Tips
¬
• In Landscape mode [ ]/Motion image mode [ ], flash setting is fixed to the
Forced OFF [ ].
• When using the flash in ISO AUTO setting, the ISO sensitivity is automatically
adjusted from ISO100 to 200. To avoid noises, decrease the ISO sensitivity.
• Do not stare at the photo flash from close proximity (a few centimeters from
the camera) when using the flash.
• If you bring the flash too close to the subjects, they may be distorted or
discoloured by its heat and lighting.
• Do not cover the photo flash with your fingers or any other items.
• If the subject is too close when using the flash, the picture may be over exposed.
• When the jitter alert appears, we recommend using the flash.
• When you set to burst mode or auto bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for every
flash activated.
