FLASH
PHOTOGRAPHY MENU

Suppressed Flash

Use this mode for photography using indoor
lighting, for shots taken through glass, and for
photography in venues such as theaters or at
indoor sporting events where the distance is too
great for the flash to be effective. When you use
Suppressed Flash, the Automatic White Balance
function (➡P.109) operates so that natural colors
are captured along with the ambience of the
available light.

If you are shooting in Suppressed Flash mode in dark
conditions, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

Slow Synchro

This is a flash mode that uses a slow shutter
speed. This allows you to take pictures of people
at night that clearly show both your subjects and
the night time backdrop.

bright scenes.
