Recording
• At the time of flash photography, when distance with the subject is near, the flash light is
interrupted with the lens and a part of the picture being taken becomes dark. Check the
distance between the camera and the subject when taking a picture. The distance from which
the subject blocks the flash light differs according to the lens used.
– When the 14–140 mm/F4.0–5.8 lens supplied in DMC-GH2H is attached:
When the aspect ratio is [X] or [ ].
Vignetting effect occurs due to the light of the flash. (Wide to 21 mm)/
1.0 m (3.28 feet) or less (22 mm)/50 cm (1.64 feet) or less (Tele)
When the aspect ratio is [Y].
Vignetting effect occurs due to the light of the flash. (Wide to 17 mm)/
1.0 m (3.28 feet) or less (18 mm)/50 cm (1.64 feet) or less (Tele)
When the aspect ratio is [W].
2.5 m (8.20 feet) or less (Wide)/1.0 m (3.28 feet) or less (15 mm)/50 cm (1.64 feet) or
less (Tele)

∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢1 This becomes 60 seconds in Shutter-Priority AE Mode.
¢2
This becomes 60 seconds in Shutter-Priority AE Mode and B (Bulb) in the Manual Exposure Mode.
¢3 This becomes B (Bulb) in the Manual Exposure Mode.
• When the flash is activated the fastest shutter speed that can be selected is 1/160 of a second.
• In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
Note
•
Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The
objects may be discolored by its heat or lighting.
• Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to AUTO/
Red-Eye Reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.
• Flash pictures taken closer or beyond the flash’s rated distance may appear too bright or too
dark.
• You must wait a moment to take the next picture while the flash icon is blinking RED indicating
the flash is charging.
• When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, white balance may be set
incorrectly.
• When you use certain lenses, light from the flash may be blocked or fail to cover the lens
field of view, causing dark areas to appear in the resulting pictures.
• When taking pictures with flash with the lens hood attached, the lower portion of the photo may
turn dark (vignetting effect) and the control of the flash may be disabled because the photo
flash may be obscured by the lens hood. We recommend detaching the lens hood.
• 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 you attach an external flash, it takes priority over the built-in flash. Refer to P170 for the
external flash.
