NOTES:

● The flash does not light when the flash is set to

“OFF” on the recording menu when GAIN UP is

set to “OFF” (

pg. 32), when P.AE effect is set to

“TWILIGHT” and also when the battery remaining

power is low.

● When taking several snapshots in succession

(Motor Drive Mode), the flash lights only during

the first one.

● Although images shot with a flash tend to look

whiter than they actually are, to compensate for

this camcorder automatically darkens the picture
when using the flash. When shooting a subject at

a distance where the flash light cannot reach
(over 2 m), set the flash to “OFF” to prevent the

picture from becoming too dark.

● The colour tone changes depending on the

background lighting conditions, such as under

fluorecent or halogen lamps.

● When you want to change the brightness of the

flash, refer to “Adjusting Flash Brightness”

(

pg. 27).

● While charging the flash, blinks in the LCD

monitor or the viewfinder and the flash does not
light. Although noise may appear in the view-

finder or the LCD monitor, this is not a malfunc-

tion. This is not recorded. It can take up to ten
seconds to charge the flash.

Snapshot Flash (Auto Flash)

During Full Auto mode, or Manual mode when “FLASH” is set to “AUTO” in the Recording Menu, the flash
automatically lights at the subject if it’s dark ( appears in the LCD monitor or the viewfinder) when taking a
snapshot in Record-Standby.
