Suppressed flash mode.
Use this mode for taking pictures using indoor
lighting, for shots taken through glass, and for
photography in places 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 selected white balance function (➡P.50)
operates so that natural colors are captured along
with the ambience of the available light.
