Flash Mode
The flash modes available depend on the mode currently selected with the mode dial.
* SLOW is displayed after command dial is released.
Flash modes are described below.
AUTO (auto flash): When lighting is poor or subject is back lit, flash pops up automatically when shut-
ter-release button is pressed halfway and fires as required.
(red-eye reduction): Use for portraits. AF-assist lamp lights before flash fires, reducing “red-eye.
SLOW (slow sync): Shutter speed slows automatically to capture background lighting at night or
under low light. Use to include background lighting in portraits.
REAR (rear curtain sync): Flash fires just before shutter closes, creating the effect of a stream of light
behind moving subjects. If this icon is not displayed, flash will fire immediately after shutter opens.
