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 ISO50 to
400. To avoid noises, decrease the
ISO sensitivity.
• Do not stare at the photo flash from
close proximity 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.
• The flash icon turns red when
activating the flash and pressing the
shutter button halfway.
• When the flash is being charged, the
status indicator and the flash icon blink
red, and you cannot take a picture
even when you press the shutter
button fully.
• If the battery indicator is less than
[ ] or setting to the Economy
mode [ ], the LCD monitor turns off
during charging the flash.
• When taking a picture with the flash,
the white balance will be automatically
adjusted [except for [ ] (Daylight)],
but the white balance may not be
properly adjusted when the photo
flash is insufficient.
• To avoid picture noises, we
recommend setting [PICT.ADJ.] to
[NATURAL]. (P58)
• Refer to P53 for the ISO sensitivity.
