FILL-IN FLASH (FORCED ACTIVATION)
In the Fill-In Flash mode, the flash fires regardless of available light. For
example, this mode can be used to brighten up the subject’s shaded
face. Another use of this mode is to correct the color shift produced by
artificial lights (eg. fluorescent light).
OFF (FLASH OVERRIDE)
In the Off mode, the flash does not fire even in low-light conditions. Use
this mode in situations where flash photography is not desired or is
prohibited, or in twilight/night scenes.

Note:
• Use this mode within the flash working range. (p. 55)
• It may not have the desired effect under excessively bright light.
Note:
• Since a slow shutter speed is automatically selected in low-light
situations when in the Off mode, the use of a tripod is recommended to
prevent blurred pictures caused by camera movement.
