FLASH SETTING
The flash is used for taking pictures where there is insufficient light and when
the subject is in shade or in backlight conditions. Your camera’s flash has four
modes of operation (automatic flash mode, forced flash mode, flash off mode
and red-eye reduction mode). Select the flash mode that is appropriate for the
surrounding conditions. The flash works only when capturing images in the
still image shooting mode.
1 Set the camera to the still image
shooting mode (page 26), and
press the [l] ([?]) button.
h The flash setting appears on the
monitor.
k: The camera will detect the
subject brightness and use the
flash only when required. In a
backlight situation, if only the
center of the image is very dark,
the flash will operate to
compensate (auto flash).
m: The flash will operate with every
image captured regardless of the
conditions. Use this setting
under backlight conditions, when
the subject is in shade, under
fluorescent lighting conditions,
etc. (forced flash).
l: The flash will not operate even in
dark situations. Use this setting
when capturing an image in a
location where flash
photography is prohibited, or
when shooting a night landscape
scene (flash off).
J: The digital camera will detect the subject brightness and use the
flash only when required. At this time the flash will operate in a
manner that reduces the red reflection (“red-eye”) in the subject’s
eyes (red-eye reduction).
