Setting the flash

The Flash button allows you to cycle through the flash

settings on the camera. To change the flash setting, press the

Flash button until the desired setting appears on the Image

Display. The following table describes each of the flash

settings on the camera.

NOTE: The flash is not available in Sunset mode nor is it

available while recording video clips.

If the flash setting is anything other than the default Auto

Flash setting, the icon for the setting will appear in the Live

View screen. The new setting remains in effect until it is

changed again or until the camera is turned off. The flash

setting resets to the default Auto Flash setting when you turn

the camera off.

Setting

Description

Auto

Flash

The camera measures the light level and uses the flash

if necessary.

Red-Eye

The camera measures the light level and uses the flash

with red-eye reduction if necessary (for a description of

red-eye reduction, see Red eye on page 27).

Flash On

The camera always uses flash. 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 use flash, no matter the lighting

conditions. Use this setting to capture poorly lit subjects

that are beyond the flash range. Exposure times may

be increased when using this setting, so you should use

a tripod to avoid blurry pictures from camera shake.
