Taking Pictures : The Details-Using the Camera Controls (All User Sets) The following settings are available. Speedlight Mode Control Panel Monitor Description Auto When lighting is poor, built-in Speedlight will pop up automatically when shutter-release NO ICON button is pressed halfway, and flash will fire when picture is taken. If left raised, flash will not fire when there is sufficient light. Flash Cancel (off) Flash will not fire even when lighting is poor. Auto with red- eye reduction Fill-flash Same as Auto, except that the red-eye reduction lamp fires before main flash, minimizing "red-eye." Use for portraits (works best when subjects are well within range of flash and looking at the lamp). Because a slight delay occurs after the shutter-release button is fully pressed to allow red-eye reduction to take effect, this setting is not recommended with subjects that are moving erratically or in other situations in which you want the camera to react quickly. Flash fires whenever picture 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. 63
