¢
The flash is automatically activated when the recording conditions 
make it necessary.
It is activated once before the actual recording to reduce the 
red-eye phenomenon (eyes of the subject appearing red in the 
picture) and then activated again for the actual recording.
•Use this when you take pictures of people in low lighting 
conditions.
[ ‰ ] ([Forced Flash 
On]) The flash is activated every time regardless of the recording 
conditions.
•Use this when your subject is back-lit or under fluorescent 
light.

feature will slow the shutter speed when the flash is activated so 
that the dark background landscape will become bright. 
Simultaneously it reduces the red-eye phenomenon.
•Use this when you take pictures of people in front of a dark 
background.

∫The available flash range
•The available flash range is an approximation.
∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢1 It may vary depending on the [Min. Shtr Speed]  setting.
¢ 2 When [Min. Shtr Speed] is set to [Auto].
¢ 3 When [Sensitivity] is set to [ ].
•¢2: The shutter speed becomes a maximum of 1 second in the following cases.–When the Optical Image Stabilizer is set to [Off].–When the camera has determined that there is very little jitter when the Optical Image 
Stabilizer is set to [On].
•In Intelligent Auto Mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.•In Scene Mode, shutter speed will be different from the above table.
Note
•If you bring the flash too close to an object, the object may be distorted or discolored by the 
heat or lighting from the flash.
•When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted 
properly and the picture may become too bright or too dark.
•When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even 
when you press the shutter button fully.
•When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the White Balance may not be 
properly adjusted.
•The flash effect may not be sufficient when using [Flash Burst] in Scene Mode or when shutter 
speed is fast.
•It may take time to charge the flash if you are taking pictures in quick succession. Take a 
picture after the access indication disappears.
•The Red-Eye Reduction effect differs between peopl e. Also, if the subject is far away from the 
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
