Reference–Beyond Point-and-Shoot
The following settings are available (restrictions may apply depending on the mode
selected):
Setting
The Flash-Ready Light
A short pause is required between exposures for the flash system to charge.
If the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway while the flash is charging, the red light next to the viewfinder
will blink.
Remove your finger briefly from the shutter-release button and try again.
Keep the Flash Window Clear
Keep your fingers and other objects away from the flash window when using the flash.
If a
shot seems dark even though the flash fired, this may indicate that you accidentally blocked
the flash window; check that the flash is unobstructed and try again.

How It Works
Flash fires when lighting is
poor.
When to Use It
Best choice in most circumstances.
Flash Cancel
(off)
Flash will not fire even
when lighting is poor.
Use when subject is outside range of flash, to
capture natural lighting under dim light, or
where use of a flash is prohibited.
Use of a
tripod is recommended to prevent blurring.
A
UT
UT
O
Auto with
red-eye
reduction
Pre-flash lamp lights before
main flash.
This causes sub-
ject’s pupils to contract be-
fore main flash fires, mini-
mizing “red-eye” effect
caused by flash reflecting
from retina.
Use for portraits (works best when subjects
are well within range of flash and looking at
pre-flash lamp).
Between your pressing shut-
ter-release button and the picture being taken,
there is a slight delay to allow the pre-flash lamp
to take effect, and consequently red-eye reduc-
tion is not recommended with subjects that
are moving erratically or in other situations in
which you want the camera to react quickly.
Anytime Flash
(fill flash)
Flash fires whenever pho-
to is taken.
Use to “fill in” (illuminate) shadows and back-
lit subjects.
Slow sync
Auto flash combined with
slow shutter speed.
Use to capture both subject and background
at night or under dim light.
Use of a tripod is
recommended to prevent blurring.
