Using the Flash
In dark locations or when the subject is backlit, you can shoot pictures with a flash by
raising the built-in flash. You can set a flash mode that suits the shooting conditions.
The flash has a range of about 0.5 to 6.5 m (1 ft. 8 in. to 21 ft.) for wide, and about
0.8 to 3 m (2 ft. 8 in. to 9 ft. 10 in.) for tele (when ISO sensitivity is set to Auto).
C
Flash Mode Setting
• The default flash mode setting varies with the shooting mode (
- A (auto) mode: U Auto
- SCENE: Options vary depending on the scenes (
-
A, B, C, D, E, F, N: U Auto
• This feature cannot be used simultaneously with certain features. See “Functions that Cannot be
A108) for more information.
• In the following situations, the setting for flash mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after
the camera is turned off.
- When shooting mode
A, B, C or D is used
- When shooting with V (Auto with red-eye reduction) in A (auto) mode
U
Auto
Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor.
V

Reduces “red-eye” in portraits.
W

Flash does not fire.
• Available when the scene mode is x (scene auto selector) or a Speedlight
(external flash unit) is attached.
X
Fill flash
The flash fires when a picture is taken, regardless of how bright the subject is. Use to
“fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects.
S
Manual
Flash is forcibly fired at the flash output that is set for the built-in flash.
• Choose the flash output from S Full (full flash), S1/2, S1/4, S1/8, S1/16,
S1/32 and S1/64. For example, when S1/16 is chosen, the flash is 1/16 of the
full flash.
• Not available when a Speedlight flash unit (available separately) is attached.
Y
Slow sync
Fill flash is combined with a slow shutter speed.
Suitable for portraits of human subjects shot at night or under dim light. Flash
illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture background.
Z
Rear-curtain sync
Fill flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating the effect of a stream of light
behind moving subjects.
