Changing Shooting Settings
Using the Built-in Flash
B The Built-in Flash
Use with CPU lenses with focal lengths of 18mm to 300mm or non-CPU lenses with focal lengths of
18mm to 200mm. Restrictions on focal length and shooting distance may apply with some lenses.
See “Optional Accessories” (A 145) for details. Remove lens hoods to prevent shadows. The flash has
a minimum range of 60cm (2ft.) and cannot be used in the macro range of macro zoom lenses.
If the flash fires in continuous release mode (A 54), only one photograph will be taken each time
the shutter-release button is pressed.
The shutter release may be briefly disabled to protect the flash after it has been used for several
consecutive shots. The flash can be used again after a short pause.
For information on optional flash units (Speedlights), see “Optional Flash Units (Speedlights)”
(A 150).
In a, b, c, and d modes, flash output is controlled using flash compensation (A 68). Output of
the built-in flash can be adjusted manually from Custom Setting 14 (Built-in flash; A 113).
C Flash Mode Setting
The default flash setting for Digital Vari-Program modes is automatically restored when the mode
dial is rotated to a new setting or the camera is turned off.
D Rear-Curtain Sync
Normally the flash fires as the shutter opens (“front curtain sync”; see below at left). In rear-curtain
sync, the flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating the effect of a stream of light behind
moving subjects.
C More Information
For more information about auto ISO control, see “ISO Auto” (A 112).
For more information about flash control options, see Custom Setting 14 (Built-in flash/Optional
flash unit; A 113).
