Select a flash mode.
Press the F button to select a
flash mode. The flash mode
icon is briefly displayed in the
center of the picture display
and then appears in the top
left corner of the display.
Note
The selected flash mode remains in effect until a new mode
is chosen.
The autofocus/flash lamp blinks while the flash
charges (if the camera is powered by AAA batteries,
the picture display will turn off until charging is com-
plete). Photos can be taken when the lamp stops
blinking.

Focus and shoot.
If the flash is required, it will emit a pre-flash before
each shot to help with focus and exposure.
Notes
• To close the flash when it is not in use, gently press the center of
the flash cover down until it latches.
• The flash turns off automatically in dynamic range double shot,
movie, continuous, and bracketing modes.
• The built-in flash turns off automatically when an optional flash is
used (pages 167, 168).
Cautions
• Do not use the built-in flash with conversion lenses or lens
hoods.
• Do not use the flash unit in close proximity to your subject’s eyes.
Particular care should be observed when photographing infants.
Do not direct the flash at the operator of a motor vehicle.
