Changing the flash settings
For flash setting in each mode, see page 49 .
NOTE: Rear-curtain-flash sync (a feature found only in S, M, and Night portrait modes) activates
automatically when the flash is fired and the shutter speed is set at 1/30 second or longer.
The flash fires just before the shutter closes to create a stream-of-light effect behind a
moving object for a more natural appearance.
Flash modes Flash fires
Auto
Flash When the lighting conditions require it.
Fill Every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting
conditions. Use when the subject is in shadow or is “backlit”
(when the sun is behind the subject). In low light, hold the
camera steady or use a tripod.
Red-eye Once, so the subject’s eyes become accustomed to the flash,
then fires again when the picture is taken. (If the lighting
conditions require flash but do not require Red-eye reduction,
the flash may fire only once.)
Off Never
Make sure the flash is open.
Press the flash button repeatedly to
scroll through flash modes.
The current flash mode is depicted
in the LCD/EVF status area.
