∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢1 It may vary depending on the [MIN. SHTR SPEED] setting (P137).
• Refer to P82 for details about the Aperture-Priority AE, Shutter-Priority AE, and Manual
Exposure.
• In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
• In Advanced Scene Mode (P86) and Scene Mode (P91), the shutter speeds will differ from
those described above.
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.
• 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.
• The flash effect may not be sufficient when using [FLASH BURST] (P97) in Scene Mode or
when shutter speed is fast.
• When taking a picture with the flash, we recommend removing the lens hood. In some
cases it may not allow the scene to be illuminated properly.
• 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.
• Flash is fixed to [Œ] when the [CONVERSION] (P144) is set to [ ] or [ ].
