Chapter 2 Using the Flash When you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows, your pictures may need flash. The camera flash is effective at the following distances, depending on your zoom position. Zoom position (at ISO 140) Effective flash-distance from subject Wide Angle 1.6 to 10.5 feet (0.5 to 3.2 m) Telephoto 1.6 to 7.5 feet (0.5 to 2.3 m) m Press the Flash button repeatedly to scroll through the flash options. m The flash icon that is displayed in the Status Display is the active option. m The flash setting remains unless Reset User Es Settings is set to Yes (see page 48). Auto Flash (no icon)-flash fires when the lighting conditions require it. Fill-flash fires every time you take a picture, regardless of the lighting conditions. Off-flash never fires. Red-eye-flash fires once so the subject's eyes become accustomed to the flash, then fires again when the picture is taken. Ideal for pictures of people. NOTE: When you are shooting in low-light conditions with the flash turned off, the camera uses slow shutter speeds. Take care to avoid camera shake. Use a tripod or place the camera on a steady surface. 19
