appears on the LCD monitor.

When shooting with the red-eye reduction function, the subjects must look right at
the red-eye reduction lamp for this mode to be effective. Try asking them to look
directly at the lamp. Even better results can be obtained by shooting with the lens set
to a wide angle, increasing the lighting in indoor settings or approaching closer to
the subject.

Setting the Slow Synchro

You can shoot images using the flash with a slow shutter speed. This helps avoid
dark backgrounds when shooting night scenes or with indoors lighting conditions.

When shooting with a high ISO sensitivity and using the built-in flash, there is more
of a chance of overexposure the closer you are to the subject.

• Some settings are not available with certain Shooting modes. Please refer to

Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode (p. 180)

• The flash fires twice. A pre-flash will fire and will be followed by the main flash.

The pre-flash is used by the camera to obtain the subject’s exposure data so that
the main flash can be set to the optimal intensity for the shot.

• The fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/250 second. The camera

automatically resets the shutter speed to 1/250 second if a faster speed is selected.

• The flash fires with automatic adjustments when [Flash Adjust] is set to [Auto] in

the [

(Rec.)] menu. When shooting in

mode, or with [Flash Adjust] set to

[Manual], the flash fires with the manually set adjustments.

• Shots cannot be taken while the flash is charging.
• The flash may take up to approximately 10 seconds to charge in some cases.

Actual times will vary according to usage and the battery charge.

tripod to prevent camera shake.
