Changing Flash Modes
The camera offers four flash modes. Select the flash
mode best suited to your photographic needs.
* The factory default setting is (Flash Off) mode.
Effective Range of the Flash
When you shoot with the flash activated, the flash
has an effective range of about 0.6 2.5 m (23.7
98.5 inches). The subject will appear dark in the
picture if the light from the flash fails to reach it.

Description
The flash is disabled even in dark conditions. Use this
mode for shooting where use of the flash is prohibited or
where adequate room illumination is available.
The flash fires automatically when it detects low ambient
light or backlighting.
When you take a picture against the light or under strong
light, the subjects face may appear in the shade in the
resultant shot. Use forced flash to reduce this effect. In
this mode, the flash will fire regardless of the ambient
light level.
Slows down the shutter release speed when the flash is
activated so that the subject is illuminated and the
background is captured too. If you use this mode when
you want to take a clear picture of your subject and
capture the background atmosphere, such as at a party, it
reduces the effect of only the background being darkened
when the flash fires.
