The electronic flash is designed to be used for every picture - indoors and outdoors. Every time you take a picture, your camera's built-in electronic flash blends light from the scene with just enough flash to give you the best possible picture. In bright sunlight, your camera blends the sunlight with just the right amount of flash to soften shadows and to reveal the facial details you expect to see in the picture. In the shade, the flash automatically supplies the additional light needed to produce a pleasing photograph. Note:The display disappears about every 40 seconds. Lightly press the MODE or shutter button to make it reappear.
