Using the Flash
Basic Photography and Playback: Auto Mode
B Shooting When Lighting is Poor and the Flash is Disabled (W)
Use of a tripod is recommended to stabilize the camera during shooting and avoid the effects of
camera shake. Set Vibration reduction (A 142) in the setup menu (A 133) to Off when using a
tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting.
The E indicator is displayed when the camera automatically increases sensitivity. Pictures taken
when E is displayed may be slightly mottled.
B Note on Using the Flash
When using the flash, reflections from dust particles in the air may appear as bright spots in pictures.
To reduce these reflections, set the flash to W (Off).
C The Flash Indicator
The flash indicator shows flash status when the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway.
On: Flash will fire when picture is taken.
Blinks: Flash charging. Wait a few seconds and try
again.
Off: Flash will not fire when picture is taken.
If the battery is low, the monitor display will turn off, and
remain off, until the flash is fully charged.
C The Flash Mode Setting
The default flash mode setting varies with shooting mode.
A (auto) mode:
U
Auto
C
(scene): varies with the selected scene mode (A 37)
y
(time-lapse movies):
U
Auto
The flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after the
camera is turned off, and reapplied the next time A (auto) mode is selected.
C Red-eye Reduction
This camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (“In-Camera Red-Eye Fix”). The flash fires repeatedly at
low intensity before the main flash, reducing red-eye. The camera then analyzes the picture; if red-
eye is detected, the affected area will be processed to further reduce red-eye before the picture is
saved. Note that because there is a slight lag between the shutter-release button being pressed and
the picture being shot, this mode is not recommended when a quick shutter response is required.
The time before the next picture can be shot also increases slightly. Advanced red-eye reduction
may not produce the desired results in all situations. In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to
red-eye may be affected by advanced red-eye reduction processing; in these cases, choose another
mode and try again.
