How it works

When to use it

!#

Auto

Flash fires when lighting is
poor.

Best choice in most situations.

%

Auto with

red-eye

reduction

Red-eye reduction lamp
fires before main flash,
reducing “red-eye.”

Use for portraits (works best when sub-
ject is well within range of flash and
looking at pre-flash). When using this
mode, the red-eye reduction function
will also work automatically for the pic-
ture recorded. Not recommended when
quick shutter response is required.

$

Flash Cancel

(off)

Flash will not fire even
when lighting is poor.

Use to capture natural lighting under
dim light or where use of flash is prohib-
ited. If 2 (camera shake) icon appears,
care should be taken to avoid blurring.

!

Anytime Flash

(fill flash)

Flash fires whenever picture
is taken.

Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and
back-lit subjects.

k

(Slow sync)

Auto flash combined with
slow shutter speeds.

Use to capture both subject and back-
ground at night or under dim light.
