How to use the flash effectively
Taking a picture using the flash with the subject too close may cause overexposure.
When you set [Highlight] in the [Custom] menu to [ON], the overexposed areas will flash
black and white during [Auto Review] or playback. If that happens, we recommend taking
the picture again, for example, after setting a lower flash output using [Flash Adjust.]
(→250).
■
The available flash range
Edges of a picture may become slightly dark if using flash at short distances without
using zoom (close to max. Wide). This may be remedied by using a little zoom.

Do not close the flash immediately after the preliminary flash is operated prior to taking pictures for
Forced ON/Red-Eye Reduction and other flash settings. If you close the flash immediately, it will
cause a malfunction.

Flash charging may take time if battery is low or if using flash repeatedly. When the flash is being
