Flash

In low light conditions it is best to use the built-in flash. You can also use the flash to compensate for

backlight conditions.

Force Flash,

Auto,

Red eye reduction,

No Flash

To set the flash:

Note: Please move the Macro/Far setting to Far mode. The flash can only be use when the camera is in Far

mode. If you are in the Macro close up mode and try to use the flash, a message will appear on the LCD to

remind

you that you are in “Macro Mode”. Select the Macro setting option to change to the Far mode in order

to use the flash.

Press the Flash/Up button.

The

icon appears on the LCD screen. This will activate the automatic flash.

The

icon as well as the red LED will begin to flash indicating that the flash is charging.

Press the Flash button again for the

icon to appear on the LCD screen. This means the flash

function has been "forced on" (manual flash).

If the flash is not ready, a red LED will light up and the

icon will flash repeatedly- wait until the

flash is ready before taking a photo.

Note: A

“low battery” warning will appear on the LCD screen if there is insufficient battery power

to operate the flash.
