d Setting the Flash
This mode is suitable for situations where the flash cannot
be used.
Use a tripod to prevent camera shake when shooting in
Suppressed flash mode in the dark condition.
Any time, flash does not fire.
This mode allows you to take pictures of people at night
that clearly show both your subjects and the night time
backdrop. To prevent camera shake, always use a tripod.
Using n synchronizes Red-eye reduction mode.
Using 8 selects slow shutter speeds of up to 2 seconds.
CAUTION
In bright scenes, overexposure may occur.
CHECK
• List of available flash modes in each Photography
mode
The following table shows the flash modes available for
each Photography mode.
• Effective flash range (S : AUTO)
Wide-angle: approx. 50 cm to 3.8 m (1.6 ft. to 12.5 ft.)
Telephoto: approx. 60 cm to 2 m (2.0 ft. to 6.6 ft.)
If you take pictures outside of the effective flash range,
the image may appear dark even if the flash is used.
CAUTION
• If pressing the shutter button while the flash is charging
(Indicator lamp blinking orange), the picture will be
taken without the flash (when using AUTO or b).
• The flash charging time may increase when the
batteries are low on charge.
• When taking a picture using the flash, the image may
disappear and go dark briefly due to flash charging. The
Indicator lamp blinks orange during charging.
• The flash fires several times (pre-flashes and the main
flash). Do not move the camera until the picture is
taken.
