Using the Flash

* Red-Eye Reduction: This feature reduces the effect of light reflecting back from the
eyes and making them appear red.
Distance ranges for shooting with the flash are 47 cm to 3.0 m (1.5 to
10 ft.) (W) and 47 cm to 2.0 m (1.5 to 6.6 ft.) (T).
If the LCD monitor is on when the flash begins charging, the upper
indicator will blink orange, and the LCD monitor will turn off. When
charging is complete, the upper indicator will turn off, and the LCD will
turn on again. The charge time varies depending on conditions of use
such as the remaining battery life.
