Selecting The Flash Control Mode To Set The Amount Of Flash Light (Flash Control) - Sony Alpha DSLR-A560 Instruction Manual

Notes
• This item cannot be set when the exposure mode is set to AUTO, Sweep Shooting,
or Scene Selection.
• If you have adjusted the flash level,
flash is pulled up. When you adjust it, be careful not to forget to reset the value.
• The higher flash effect may not be visible due to the limited amount of flash light, if
the subject is outside the maximum range of the flash. If the subject is very close, the
lower flash effect may not be visible.
