Setting The Flash - FujiFilm FinePix F650 Owner's Manual

d Setting the Flash
Flash photography is useful for taking pictures at night or
indoor dark locations. Choose from 6 flash modes
according to the type of shot. See p.52 for information on
the available Photography modes.
The flash setting changes
each time you press d
(q).
MEMO
When pressing the shutter button down halfway, b
appears on the LCD monitor before the flash fires.
AUTO Auto flash (not displayed)
Use this mode for ordinary photography.
The flash fires as required by the shooting conditions.
b RED EYE REDUCTION
This mode is suitable for shooting portraits
in low-light conditions.
Use this mode to minimize red-eye (eyes
appear in red in the finished photo).
MEMO Red-eye effect
When using the flash to take a picture of people in low-
light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the
picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting
off the inside of the eye.
d FORCED FLASH
Use this mode in backlit scenes, or to get the correct
colors when taking a picture under bright lighting.
In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark
conditions.
C SUPPRESSED FLASH
This mode is suitable for situations where the flash cannot
be used.
Use a tripod to prevent camera shake when shooting in
Suppressed flash mode in the dark condition.
Any time, flash does not fire.
c SLOW SYNCHRO,
n RED EYE & SLOW
This mode allows you to take pictures of people at night
that clearly show both your subjects and the night time
backdrop. To prevent camera shake, always use a tripod.
Using n synchronizes Red-eye reduction mode.
Using 8 selects slow shutter speeds of up to 2 seconds.
CAUTION
