Using the Flash
In dark locations or when the subject is backlit, you can shoot pictures with flash
by raising the built-in flash.
• The flash has a range of about 0.5 to 5.5 m (1 ft. 8 in. to 18 ft.) when the camera is
zoomed out all the way, and about 1.5 to 3.5 m (5 ft. to 11 ft.) when the camera
is zoomed in all the way.
• If the built-in flash is raised when using easy auto mode (A 20), the camera
automatically sets a flash mode according to the determined scene mode.
When the built-in flash is lowered, the flash setting changes to off and W is
displayed at the top of the monitor.
Selecting a Flash Mode
When using Auto mode ( A 48), certain scene modes (A 35), or smart portrait
mode (
A 44), the following flash modes are available.

at night or under dim light.
