Notes • The recommended shooting distance using the built-in flash is 31/32 feet to 8 1/3 feet (0.3 m to 2.5 m). • Attaching a conversion lens (not supplied) may block the light from the flash or cause the lens shadow to appear. • Auto red-eye reduction may not produce the desired red-eye reduction effects depending on individual differences, the distance to the subject, if the subject does not see the pre-strobe, or other conditions. In addition, red-eye reduction effects are also difficult to obtain if you set the shutter to a slow speed in the PROGRAM AE shutter priority mode. • The flash effect is not obtained easily when you use forced flash in a bright location. 19
