If the flash is used in macro mode, the light may
not be controlled correctly. In this case, set a
higher ISO sensitivity or use other lightings in-
stead of using the flash.
Use the LCD monitor for shooting in macro
mode. Subjects framed in the viewfinder
when in macro mode may not appear in the
final image as intended due to the parallax
problem.

Shooting
If the flash is used in macro mode, the light may
not be controlled correctly. In this case, set a
higher ISO sensitivity or use other lightings in-
stead of using the flash.
When shooting with a high ISO sensitivity and
using the built-in flash, there is more of a chance
of overexposure the closer you are to the sub-
ject.
Please note that a slow shutter speed will be
selected in dark places when the flash is set to
off or slowsynchro. Be careful to avoid camera
blur under these conditions.
Shooting in
Mode
Be careful to hold the camera still to avoid cam-
era Shake.
Shooting in or / Mode
Fix the camera to a tripod since the shutter
speed will be slower than in the
mode.
If an image is dark in
mode, reshooting in
mode will make it brighter.
The flash may take approximately 20
seconds to charge. The LCD monitor, if it is
on, will go off after the indicator flashes
orange while recharging. The LCD monitor
will go back on after the indicator glows a
steady orange when recharging is completed.
Recharging time may vary according to
shooting conditions and battery charge lev-
els.
The flash fires twice. A preparatory pre-flash
is followed by the main flash. The exposure
readings obtained from the subject with the
pre-flash are used to set the optimal flash
intensity for the main flash, which is used to
shoot the image.
Red-Eye Reduction
Light reflecting back from the eyes may
appear red when the flash is used in dark
places. Use the auto red-eye reduction* for
these situations.
For this mode to be effective, the subject
must be looking right at the red-eye
reduction lamp. Try asking them to look at
the red-eye lamp. Even better results can
be obtained by increasing the lighting in in-
door settings or coming closer to the
subject.
*The shutter will not activate for approxi-
mately 1 second after the red-eye reduction
lamp fires, even when the shutter button is
pressed all the way down in order to improve
the effect. If you want to have more immedi-
ate shutter response, set the flash setting to
either , or .
