poor.
Best choice in most situations.

Auto with
red-eye
reduction
Red-eye reduction lamp
(E4100/E3200) or flash
(E2200) 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). Not recommended
when quick shutter response is
required.

Flash will not fire even
when lighting is poor.
Use to capture natural lighting under
dim light or where use of flash is prohib-

care should be taken to avoid blurring.

is taken. Use to "fill-in" (illuminate) shadows and
back-lit subjects.

slow shutter speeds.
Use to capture both subject and back-
ground at night or under dim light. If
2 (camera shake) icon appears, care
should be taken to avoid blurring.
