Basic Photography and Playback: Auto Mode Using the Flash In dark locations or when the subject is backlit, you can shoot pictures with flash by raising the built-in flash. The flash has a range of about 0.5-8.8 m (1 ft. 8 in.-28 ft.) when the camera is zoomed out all the way. With maximum optical zoom applied, the range is about 0.5-5.6 m (1 ft. 8 in.-18 ft.) (when ISO sensitivity is set to Auto). When the built-in flash is raised, you can set the flash mode according to your shooting environment. Available Flash Modes U V W X Y Z Auto Flash fires automatically when lighting is poor. Auto with red-eye reduction Reduces "red-eye" in portraits (A 32). Off Flash will not fire even when lighting is poor. Fill flash Flash fires when a picture is shot. Use to "fill-in" (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects. Slow sync U (auto) is combined with slow shutter speed. Flash illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture background at night or under dim light. Rear-curtain sync Flash fires just before shutter closes, creating effect of a stream of light behind moving subjects. 30
