Flash shooting
• Auto-flash (No indication)
The flash fires automatically in tow light or backlight conditions.
eRed-eye reduction flash (<_)
The light from the flash may make tile subject's eyes appear red in the
picture. The red-eye reduction flash mode significantly reduces this
phenomenon by emitting pre-flashes before firing the regular flash. This helps
accustom the subject's eyes to the bright tight and minimizes the red-eye
phenomenon.
M-M
The subject's eyes appear red
• After the pre-flashes, it takes about 1 second before the shutter is
released. Hold the camera flrmty to avoid camera movement
Note • Effectiveness may be limited if the subject is not looking directly at
the pre-flashes, or if the shooting range is too far. Individual physical
characteristics may also limit effectiveness.
eFill-in flash (_.)
The flash fires regardless of the avaiIable fight. This mode is useful for
eliminating shadows on the subject's face (such as shadows from tree
leaves), in a backtight situation, or for correcting the color shift produced by
artificial lighting (especially fluorescent light)
• The fiIIdn flash may not have the desired effect under excessively
_ bright tight
