Taking pictures with flash
The effect of red-eye reduction varies depending on the subject and is affected by
factors such as distance to the subject, whether the subject is looking at the camera
during preliminary flash, and so on. In some cases, the effect of red-eye reduction may
be negligible.
Flash settings may be changed when changing recording mode.
Scene Mode flash settings are restored to default when Scene Mode is changed.
No pictures may be taken if these marks (e.g. ) are flashing (flash is charging).
If light from the flash on a subject is insufficient, neither the proper exposure nor White
Balance is achieved.
The flash effect may not be sufficient in the following cases:
• Slow shutter speed
• [Flash Burst] is set
Flash charging may take time if battery is low, or if using flash repeatedly.
