Using the Flash Features
By default, this camera is set to automatic flash mode which means that it will determine when to use this feature
or not. However, is some situations, it may be useful to manually select the appropriate flash mode. When taking
pictures in difficult lighting conditions, use the Flash button
to select the desired mode. This function cannot be
activated while recording videos or continuous shooting.
To activate Flash:
Press the • Flash/Right button on your camera repeatedly
until your desired flash mode is displayed on the LCD
screen.
Flash button
This camera is equipped with five flash modes:
AUTO.
The flash fires automatically whenever the camera determines
extra lighting is needed. This is the default mode of the
camera.
Red-eye reduction.
The flash fires twice to help reduce the red-eye effect. The
first flash strobe is designed to force the iris of the subject to
reduce in size to compensate for the bright light, thus reducing
the reflection (red eye effect) of the Eye retina. The second
strobe is when the photo is taken.

Forced on.
The flash fires whenever you press the Shutter button regardless of lighting conditions. This may be useful in some
bright backlight situations.
Slow sync.
This would be used to capture a dimly lit background while keeping the foreground (subject) properly lighted. This
flash mode forces the camera to use a slower shutter speed in combination with the flash. The flash fires briefly to
light the foreground (subject) while capturing ambient light to reveal more detail in the background. If Slow Sync
flash is not used, the background may appear black or underexposed.
Forced off.
The flash is turned off and will not fire regardless of the lighting situation. In low light situations, the use of a tripod
may be required to reduce photo blurring.
Flash function is only available in shooting still images but not available in Burst •
and AEB modes.
