Using the flash

Use the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows.
Flash settings are limited in some capture modes.

NOTE: You can also attach an external flash.

When the lighting conditions require it.

Fill

Every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting
conditions. Use when the subject is in shadow or is
“backlit” (when the light is behind the subject). In low
light, hold the camera steady or use a tripod.

NOTE: Not available in Smart Capture mode.

Preflash

A preflash fires, shrinking the eye pupil, before the picture
is taken.

Digital
Correction

A preflash does not fire; the camera corrects red eye.

NOTE: When using digital correction, image processing takes

longer than when using preflash.

Off

Never.

through flash modes.
