USING BUILT-IN FLASH
When subject brightness is insufficient, the flash-
recommended light (green
~)
lights up inside the viewfinder
when you lightly press shutter release button to activate the
exposure meter.
You can use the built-in flash anytime, regardless of ambient
lighting. For example, if your subject is backlit, you can use
the built-in flash to illuminate your subject and fill in shadows.

AUTOMATIC BALANCED FILL-FLASH WITH
TTL MULTI SENSOR-3D MULTI-SENSOR
BALANCED FILL- FLASH AND MULTI-SENSOR
BALANCED FILL-FLASH
Combined with aD-type AF Nikkor lens, in automatic exposure
mode, the N70's built-in flash performs 3D Multi-Sensor
Balanced Fill-Flash. In 3D Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill-Flash
operation, just alter you depress shutter release button and
before the shutter is activated, the built-in flash will fire a series
of weak pre-flashes (Monitor Pre-flashes) that are detected by
the camera's TIL Multi Sensor, then analyzed for brightness
and contrast. Additionally, Distance Information from the D-type
AF Nikkor lens in use, along with other exposure control
information, is integrated, thus automatically compensating
flash output level so that flash output and ambient light are
balanced. The Monitor Pre-flashes enable 3D Multi-Sensor
Balanced Fill-Flash to ensure correct exposure even in difficult
situations, including scenes with a very reflective object such as
a mirror or a white wall, and scenes with a very dark
backgrounds.
3D Multi-Sensor Fill-Flash is performed with all the
meters-Matrix, Center-Weighted and Spot.
When the camera and the built-in flash are used with a non-D-
type AF Nikkor lens, Multi-Sensor Balanced Fill -Flash, which
offers the same flash output control system but without
Distance Information, is performed.
