Using the Flash (continued) When shooting with a high ISO sensitivity and using the built-in flash, there is more of a chance of overexposure the closer you are to the subject. • When shooting with [Slow Synchro] set to [On], we recommend the use of a tripod to prevent camera shake. • Some settings are not available with certain Shooting modes. Please refer to Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode (p. 208). • The flash fires twice. A pre-flash will fire and will be followed by the main flash. The pre-flash is used by the camera to obtain the subject's exposure data so that the main flash can be set to the optimal intensity for the shot. • The fastest shutter speed for flash synchronization is 1/250 second. The camera automatically resets the shutter speed to 1/250 second if a faster speed is selected. • The flash fires with automatic adjustments when [Flash Adjust] is set to [Auto] in the [ (Rec.)] menu. When shooting in mode, or with [Flash Adjust] set to [Manual], the flash fires fully or with the manually set adjustments. • The built-in flash may take up to approximately 10 seconds to charge in some cases. Actual times will vary according to usage and the battery charge. • Shots cannot be taken while the flash is charging. • The flash exposure and the Flash Output can be changed (p. 100). • The flash setting is saved when the camera is turned off in the , , and shooting modes. 62
