This function automatically determines a well-balanced exposure by measuring the
amount of light striking the subject you want to capture.

too dark nor too bright.

Flash
Use the flash to take photos when lighting conditions are poor or when there is a
backlight. The following options are available when you tap the flash icon on the
camera screen:
Auto
The camera automatically determines whether the lighting conditions require the use of a flash.
Fill flash
Use this setting when the background is brighter than the subject. This setting removes unwanted
dark shadows.
Red-eye reduction

Off
The flash is turned off. Sometimes photo quality can be better without the flash, even if lighting
conditions are poor. Taking a good photo without using the flash requires a steady hand. Use the
self-timer to avoid blurred photos.
Torch

using pre-programmed scenes. The camera determines a number of settings for you
to fit the selected scene, ensuring the best possible photo.
