FUNCTIONS
Caution
• Because of the pre-flashes, it takes about 2 seconds before
the shutter is actually released. Hold the camera securely
during this period to prevent camera shake.
• The effectiveness of the red-eye reduction mode may be
reduced depending on the distance to the subject or if the
subject is not looking directly at the flash or the pre-flash. It
may also vary from person to person.
FILL IN ( )
Use this mode to fire the flash with every image. This mode is suitable when
you need to minimize shadows around the subject (such as the shade of
tree leaves on the subject’s face), in backlight conditions, or under artificial
lighting such as a fluorescence lamp.
Caution
The fill in flash effect may not be noticeable under very bright
light.
FLASH OFF (
)
Use this mode in situations where flash photography is prohibited. The flash
will not fire even in low-light situations.
NIGHT SCENE (
)
Use this mode when taking photographs at night.
The flash fires first, then the shutter remains open to capture the
background details.
