•Do not look directly at the flash at
close range when it is activated.
•If you bring the flash too close to an
object, the object may be distorted or
discolored by the heat or lighting from
the flash.
•In economy mode, the LCD monitor
turns off and the status indicator lights
while the flash is charging. [This does
not happen when using the AC adaptor
(DMW-AC5PP; optional).]
If the remaining battery power is low,
the length of time that the LCD monitor
turns off to charge may become longer.
•When you take a picture beyond the
available flash range, the exposure may
not be adjusted properly and the picture
may become bright or dark.
•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. (P58)
•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.
