Cautions: Flash Mode
In red-eye reduction mode, the shutter will be released approximately one second after the
initial red-eye reduction pre-flash. Do not move the camera until shooting is complete. Also
note that red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in some conditions.
The fastest shutter speed available when the flash fires is 1/250 s. Bright backgrounds in
pictures taken with the flash may be overexposed.
The sync speed for silent photography (

P. 106

), High Res Shot (

P. 109

), and focus bracketing

(

P. 216

) is 1/50 s. Setting [ISO] to a value over ISO 8000 when using an option that requires the

electronic shutter (for example, silent mode or focus bracketing) sets the flash sync speed to
1/20 s. The flash sync speed for ISO bracketing (

P. 216

) is also 1/20 s.

Even the minimum available flash output may be too bright at short range. To prevent
overexposure in pictures taken at short range, select mode

A

or

M

and choose a smaller

aperture (higher f-number) or choose a lower setting for [ISO].
