Note
Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The
objects may be discolored by its heat or lighting.
Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to AUTO/
Red-eye reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.
When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted
properly and the picture may become bright or dark.
When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even
when you press the shutter button fully.
The white balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.
When taking a picture with the flash, we recommend removing the lens hood. In some
cases it may not allow the scene to be illuminated properly.
It may take time to charge the flash if you repeat taking a picture. Take a picture after the
access indication disappears.
The red-eye reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the
camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
When you attach an external flash, it takes priority over the built-in flash. Refer to P128 for the
external flash.
