Shooting Functions > Flash ‡ You can also drag the slider or touch / to adjust the intensity. ‡ Adjusting the flash intensity may not be effective when: - The subject is too close to the camera. - You set a high ISO sensitivity. - The exposure value is too big or too small. - It is too bright or too dark. ‡ In some shooting modes, you cannot use this function. ‡ If you attach an intensity-adjustable external flash to the camera, the intensity settings of the flash will be applied. ‡ If the subject is too close when you use the flash, some light may be blocked, resulting in a dark photo. Ensure that the subject is within the recommended range, which varies by lens. ‡ When a lens hood is attached, the light from the flash can be blocked by the hood. Remove the hood to use the flash.
