U

The flash fires automatically when lighting is dim.

V

The flash will not fire.
We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in dark
surroundings.

Fill flash

The flash fires whenever a picture is taken. Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit
subjects.

Auto flash mode is combined with slow shutter speed.
Suited to evening and night portraits that include background scenery.
The flash illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture background
at night or under dim lighting.
