Setting the Flash

NOTE

The flash does not work in

Panorama

mode, with the

Burst

setting, or while recording video clips.

The

Flash

button lets you cycle through the flash settings on

the camera. To change the flash setting, press the

Flash

button until the desired setting appears in the Image Display.

The following table describes each of the flash settings on the

camera.

NOTE

If you change the flash setting, the camera will remain

in that setting until you change it or turn off the camera.

Except in

My Mode

(page 52), when you turn the camera

on again, flash resets to the default

Auto Flash

setting.

Setting Description

Auto Flash

The camera measures light and uses the flash if

necessary.

Red-Eye

The camera measures light and uses the flash with

red-eye reduction if necessary (see the following

NOTE for a description of red-eye reduction).

Flash On

The camera always flashes. If the light is behind your

subject, you can use this setting to increase the light

on the front of your subject. This is called “fill-flash.”

Flash Off

The camera will not flash, no matter the lighting

conditions.

Night

The camera fires the flash if necessary (using red-eye

reduction) to illuminate objects in the foreground. It

then continues to expose as if the flash had not fired to

gather the background (see the following NOTE for a

description of red-eye reduction).
