Using the Built-in Flash

Using the Built-in Flash in the Basic Zone

In the Basic Zone modes (except <

> < ^ > < CD >), the built-in

flash pops up and fires automatically in low-light and backlit conditions.

Using the Built-in Flash in the Creative Zone

When using a Creative Zone mode, press the < V > button to pop up the

built-in flash.

Select

< P>

mode for full autoflash.

The shutter speed and aperture value are determined

automatically, just as in < O > (Full Auto) mode.

Select <

Tv>

mode to manually set a shutter speed slower than

1/200 second.

The camera then automatically sets the flash aperture value to

provide the proper exposure for your shutter speed.

Select <

Av>

mode to manually set the aperture value.

Against dark backgrounds such as the night sky, slow-sync

shooting will be set so that both the subject and background

are exposed correctly. The main subject is captured by the

flash, and the background is captured by long exposure using
a slow shutter speed.

• Because automatic slow-sync shooting uses a slow shutter

speed, always use a tripod.

Select <

mode to set the shutter speed and the aperture

value manually.

The main subject is exposed properly by the flash. The

background exposure varies according to the shutter speed

and aperture settings.

A-DEP

The effect is the same as using flash in <

mode.
