Flash shooting Chapter 3 You can select a flash mode appropriate to the lightning conditions and the effect you want to achieve. You can also adjust the amount of light emitted using the flash intensity control (P. 53). The flash modes are as follows: Auto-flash Automatically fires in low-light and backlight conditions. Red-eye reduction flash This mode significantly reduces the "red-eye" phenomenon by emitting several pre-flashes before firing the regular flash. This mode works the same as the auto-flash except for the pre-flashes. The subject's eyes appear red. Note ● After the pre-flash, it takes approximately 1 second before the shutter is released. Hold the camera firmly after the pre-flash to prevent camera movement. ● Effectiveness may be limited if the subject is not looking directly at the preflashes, or if the shooting range is too far. Individual physical characteristics, such as light-colored eyes, may also limit effectiveness. Fill-in flash The flash fires regardless of available light. This mode is useful for eliminating shadows on the subject's face or for correcting the color shift produced by artificial lighting (especially fluorescent light). Note ● Fill-in flash may not have the desired effect under excessively bright light. 48
