Using the Flash
Basic Photography and Playback: Auto Mode
j When Lighting is Poor
Note the following when lighting is poor and the flash is off (B).
Place the camera on a flat, level surface or use a tripod (recommended). When using a tri-
pod, turn the vibration reduction off (c 100).
•The W icon is displayed when the camera increases sensitivity from the normal sensitivity to
minimize blur caused by slow shutter speeds. The picture taken when the W icon is dis-
played may be slightly mottled.
The camera may process pictures to reduce noise, which makes recording time increase.
j Note on Using the Flash
When using the flash at a wide-angle zoom position, bright reflections from dust particles in
the air may appear as bright spots in the pictures. To reduce these reflections, set the flash to
B (Off) in the monitor or zoom in on the subject.
k The AF-assist Illuminator
If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the
shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 1.9 m (6.2 ft.)
at the maximum wide-angle position and 1.1 m (3.6 ft.) at the maximum telescopic position.
The AF-assist illuminator can be set to [Off] manually (c 100), although in this case the cam-
era may not focus when lighting is poor.
k The Flash Lamp
The flash lamp indicates flash status when the
shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
On : Flash will fire when picture is taken.
Blinks: Flash charging. Wait a few seconds and
try again.
Off : Flash will not fire when picture is taken.
k Red-eye Reduction
The COOLPIX L12 is equipped with an advanced red-eye reduction system. Pre-flashes are
fired several times at low intensity before the main flash to reduce “red-eye.” If the camera
detects “red-eye” after a picture is taken, Nikon’s own In-Camera Red-Eye Fix processes the
image as it is recorded. Therefore, there is a slight delay before the shutter-release button
operates normally to take another picture.
Not recommended for when shutter-release timing is essential.
Red-eye reduction may not always produce the desired results.
In some rare cases, other portions of pictures may be affected.
Use flash modes other than auto with red-eye reduction in above cases.
