Flicker Reduction When powered by alternating current, fluorescent lamps and certain other types of artificial lighting flicker at a rate determined by the frequency of the power supply, which depending on the timing of the shutter release may produce areas of uneven color or exposure. Flicker reduction helps prevent this by matching the timing of the shutter release to the flicker rate. To enable flicker reduction, select [On] for [Flicker reduction shooting] in the photo shooting menu. [On] [Off] A FLICKER icon is displayed when [On] is selected. Note, however, that flicker reduction may sometimes not function as expected and the icon may not always be displayed (page 43). 42
