You can change the flash settings to match the shooting conditions.
Flexible button | Description |
---|---|
Auto flash | The flash fires when necessary, such as in dim lighting. |
Flash off | The flash does not fire. We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in dark surroundings. |
Always fire flash | The flash fires whenever a picture is taken. Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects. |
This function may not be available to use in combination with other functions.
Functions that cannot be used simultaneously when shooting
When you use the flash at the wide-angle zoom position, the edge of the image may be dark depending on the shooting distance. This may be improved if you move the zoom control slightly toward the telephoto position.
The status of the flash can be confirmed by pressing the shutter-release button halfway.
