Using the Built-in Flash
ƈ Use the following procedures to take a picture in low light or backlit conditions or when you want to
manually use the built-in flash.
The built-in flash gives best results within a range of 0.7 m to 4 m from the subject.
Exposure will not be properly controlled and vignetting may occur when used at a distance closer
than 0.7 m (this distance varies slightly depending on the lens being used and set sensitivity).
ſ Compatibility of built-in flash and lens
Vignetting (darkening of the corners of the image due to a lack of light) may occur depending on the
lens being used and the capture conditions. We recommend taking a test shot to confirm this.
Camera automatically determines surrounding light and built-in
flash pops up and discharges automatically when necessary (flash
does not discharge even if it is popped up when not necessary).
Discharges flash manually. Flash discharges when popped up,
does not discharge when retracted.
Discharges flash manually. Lights a red-eye reduction light before
manual flash.
