3 Setting options for taking

pictures and recording video

clips

Your camera's default settings work well for most shooting situations. For some

situations, however, the features described in this chapter can improve the pictures you

take and the video clips you record. In addition to setting features that optimize the camera

for lighting and motion, you can also set the camera to take a series of pictures rapidly

or take images 10 seconds after you press the Shutter button, giving you time to place

yourself in the image.

Setting the flash

To select a flash setting, press while in Picture Capture, use to highlight the

desired flash mode, then press

. To exit without changing the flash setting,

press

Auto Flash (Default)—The camera uses the flash if necessary.

Red-Eye—The camera uses the flash with red-eye reduction, if necessary, to minimize

the possibility of human eyes appearing red in the final image. For information about

red-eye, see “

Flash Setting—Red-Eye” on page 14.

Flash On—The camera always uses flash. If the light is behind your subject, use this

setting to increase the light on the front of your subject.

Flash Off—The camera does not use flash. Use this setting to capture poorly lit subjects

beyond the flash range or to capture scenes with the existing light.

The flash setting remains in effect until it is changed again, or you turn off the camera.

NOTE: The flash is set to Flash Off in Landscape, Sunset, and

Theatre shooting modes, and while recording video clips or using Burst. The

flash is set to

Red-Eye in Night Portrait shooting mode.

Flash Setting—Red-Eye

The red-eye phenomenon is caused when light from the flash reflects off the subjects'

eyes, which can make human eyes appear red in the captured image. Using

Red-

Eye causes the camera to flash quickly up to three times to shrink the subject's pupils

(reducing the effect of the red-eye phenomenon) before using the main flash and

capturing the image. Since it takes longer to take a picture using this setting, make sure

your subjects wait for the additional flashes.
