A display on the top of the camera shows the current settings. The following
subsections briefly describe each entry. For information on how to define settings
through the Capture mode, see page 24.
The camera must be turned on and in the Capture mode to view and interact with
this display.
Flash
Your camera is equipped with a built-in flash that offers a red-eye reduction
feature. The flash has an effective range of approximately 1.6 to 13 ft
(0.5 to 4.0 m). There are four Flash settings:
Auto—fires the flash automatically when you press the Shutter button
and the camera determines that there is not enough light.
Red-eye—determines that there is not enough light, and fires the flash
once when you press the Shutter button to reduce the chance of red eye,
and then flashes a second time 600 milliseconds later when the picture
is taken.
Fill—fires the flash every time you press the Shutter button. Use this
setting when the lighting is poor or when your subject is lit from
behind.
Off—turns off the flash.
