EPSON PhotoPC 3100Z Flash Off The flash is disabled, even when lighting is inadequate. Use this setting for special effects, where flash photography is prohibited, or for macro mode close-ups. Red-eye Reduction Use this setting to eliminate the red-eye effect (the reddish reflection of the flash off of your subjects pupils). Slow Synchronized Flash To light up the background as well as your subject, use the leading slow synchronized flash mode when taking pictures at night. Or, use the trailing slow synchronized flash mode setting for capturing motion. This option causes the aperture to stay open longer, allowing more light to enter the camera. See your User's Guide to change this flash setting to leading or trailing. Note Slow synchronized flash is available only in the Program or Manual user modes. See page 11 to change the user mode. After you take a flash picture, the icon blinks until the flash is fully recharged. Your flash setting remains in effect even after you turn off the camera.
