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).
Red-eye reduction flash
The light from the flash may make the subject’s eyes appear red in the
picture. The red-eye reduction flash mode significantly reduces this
phenomenon by emitting pre-flashes before firing the regular flash. This helps
accustom the subject’s eyes to the bright light and minimizes the red-eye
phenomenon.
Auto-flash (No indication)
Automatically fires in low-light and backlight conditions.
