FLASH RANGE - AUTOMATIC OPERATION
The camera automatically controls the flash output. For well-exposed images, the subject
must be within the flash range. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the
same at the lens' wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position. The flash range
can be changed with camera sensitivity (ISO), see page 47.
Wide-angle position
Telephoto position
0.5m ~ 3.0m ( 1.6ft ~ 9.8ft)
0.8m ~ 1.7m ( 2.6ft ~ 5.6ft)
FLASH SIGNALS
The monitor flash signal indicates the status of the flash.
When the signal appears, the flash will be used in the
exposure.
When using flash cancel, the flash signal and viewfinder
indicator lamp blink to warn of camera shake caused by
long exposures. Camera shake is slight blurring caused by
subtle hand motion and is more pronounced at the lens'
telephoto position than at the wide-angle position. Although

the warning appears, the shutter can be released. If the
warning appears, place the camera on a tripod or use the
flash. The warning is not used with manual exposure.
