FLASH MODES
The flash can be used when taking still images.
To select the flash mode, press the flash mode
button (1) on the back of the camera until the
desired mode is displayed. Press the shutter-
release button to set the mode. The active flash
mode is displayed in the top left corner of the
LCD monitor. When the camera is turned off and
auto reset (p. 55) is active, the flash mode is
reset to autoflash with red-eye reduction if this
mode was last set, if not the mode will be reset
to autoflash. While the flash is charging, the
shutter cannot be released.
Autoflash - the flash fires automatically in low-
light and backlit conditions.
Red-eye reduction - the flash fires multiple
bursts before the main flash burst to reduce red-
eye; an effect caused by light reflected from the
retina. Use in low-light conditions when taking
photographs of people or animals, the pre-
flashes contract the pupils of the subject’s eyes.
