The available flash range to take pictures

The available flash range is an approximation.

In [HIGH SENS.] (P54) in Scene mode, the ISO sensitivity automatically switches to between
[ISO1600] and [ISO6400] and the available flash range also differs.
Wide: Approx. 1.15 m (3.77 feet) to approx. 15.4 m (50.5 feet)
Tele:

Approx. 1.0 m (3.28 feet) to approx. 7.3 m (24.0 feet)

In [FLASH BURST] (P55) in Scene mode, the ISO sensitivity automatically switches to
between [ISO100] and [ISO3200] and the available flash range also differs.
Wide: Approx. 60 cm (1.97 feet) to approx. 4.0 m (13.1 feet)
Tele:

Approx. 1.0 m (3.28 feet) to approx. 1.9 m (6.23 feet)

Shutter speed for each flash setting

¢1 It may vary depending on the [MIN. SHTR SPEED] setting (P75).
¢2 When Intelligent ISO is set (P68)

¢2: The shutter speed becomes a maximum of 1 second in the following cases.

When the Optical image stabilizer is set to [OFF].

When the camera has determined that there is jitter when the Optical image stabilizer is set to
[MODE1], [MODE2] or [AUTO].

In Intelligent auto mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.

In Scene mode, shutter speed will be different from the above table.

Note

If you bring the flash too close to an object, the object may be distorted or discolored by the
heat or lighting from the flash.

When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted
properly and the picture may become too bright or too dark.

When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even
when you press the shutter button fully. When [AUTO LCD OFF] is set, the LCD monitor
turns off and the status indicator lights.

The white balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.

When the shutter speed is fast, the flash effect may not be sufficient.

It may take time to charge the flash if you are taking pictures in quick succession. Take a
picture after the access indication disappears.

The red-eye reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject is far away from the
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
