Auto Flash Mode

Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to ensure that the subject’s eyes
appear natural when photographing people in
low-light conditions.
The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture is
taken and then fires again to take the actual picture.

!

The \ red-eye reduction flash in “5” or “4” mode
fires automatically when required by the conditions.

Red-Eye Effect

When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear
red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use
Red-Eye Reduction flash to effectively minimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect.
Take the following measures to make Red-Eye Reduction more effective :

Get the subjects to look at the camera.

Get as close as possible to the subjects.

7 Forced Flash

Use this flash mode to photograph backlit
scenes, such as a subject against a window or
in the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correct
colors when you are shooting under lighting
such as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, the
flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

This is a flash mode that uses a slow shutter
speed. This allows you to take pictures of people
at night that clearly show both your subjects and
the nighttime backdrop.

Slow Synchro

!

The image may be overexposed when you shoot
bright scenes.

!

Because a slow shutter speed is used, a tripod
should be used to prevent camera shake.

Use this mode for slow synchro shots with red-
eye reduction.

the background brightly lit, please use the “
