(Flash Off): Does not fire even if the flash is raised.
(Autoflash): Fires in dark environments or when shooting towards
bright light.
(Fill-flash): Fires every time you trigger the shutter.
(Slow Sync.): Fires every time you trigger the shutter. Slow sync
shooting allows you to shoot a clear image of both the subject and the
background.
(Rear Sync.): Fires right before the exposure is completed every
time you trigger the shutter. A trailing image of the movement of the
subject is captured to make more natural image.
• The selectable items of the flash mode depends on the shooting mode
(page 59).
