Selecting Flash Mode

<Flash Modes>When the “ ” button is pressed, the display changes as follows:

* “Red-eye” Phenomenon: This phenomenon may occur when using flash tophotograph persons or pets under dark conditions. In some cases, theflash reflects against the retinas of the subject’s eyes, causing the pupils toappear red in the photograph.

In this mode, the flash fires regardless ofsurrounding light conditions. This modeprovides fill-flash when shooting in a backlightenvironment or under strong sunlight whenshadows are cast on the main subject.

In this mode the flash does not fire. This mode iseffective when shooting an evening sunset or topreserve indoor mood.

The camera automatically determines lightingconditions and switches between flash andavailable-light exposure as needed.
