Setting Description Flash Off The camera will not use flash, no matter the lighting conditions. Night The camera uses the flash if necessary and red-eye reduction to illuminate objects in the foreground (see the following NOTE for a description of red-eye reduction). The camera then continues to expose as if the flash had not been used to gather the background. NOTE The red-eye phenomenon is caused by light from the flash reflecting off the subjects' eyes, which sometimes makes a human's or animal's eyes appear red in the captured image. When you use a flash setting with redeye reduction, the camera flashes several times, minimizing the red-eye in the captured images of humans or animals. It will take longer to take a picture using redeye reduction, because the shutter is delayed for the additional flashes. In turn, make sure your subjects wait for the additional flashes. If the flash setting is anything other than the default Auto Flash setting, the icon for the setting (in the previous table) will appear in the Live View screen. The new setting remains in effect until it is changed again or until the camera is turned off. The flash setting resets to the default Auto Flash setting when you turn the camera off. NOTE To restore the flash setting to what it was when you last turned the camera off, hold down the Menu/OK button as you turn the camera back on.

NOTE
The red-eye phenomenon is caused by light from the
flash reflecting off the subjects’ eyes, which sometimes
makes a human’s or animal’s eyes appear red in the
captured image. When you use a flash setting with red-
eye reduction, the camera flashes several times,
minimizing the red-eye in the captured images of humans
or animals. It will take longer to take a picture using red-
eye reduction, because the shutter is delayed for the
additional flashes. In turn, make sure your subjects wait
for the additional flashes.
If the flash setting is anything other than the default
Auto Flash
setting, the icon for the setting (in the previous table) will
appear in the
Live View
screen. The new setting remains in
effect until it is changed again or until the camera is turned off.
The flash setting resets to the default
Auto Flash
setting when
you turn the camera off.
NOTE
To restore the flash setting to what it was when you last
turned the camera off, hold down the
Menu/OK
button as
you turn the camera back on.

conditions.
