∫ Shutter speed for each flash setting
¢The shutter speed changes depending on the slow shutter setting. (P68)
• Do not stare at the photo flash from
close proximity.
• If you bring the flash too close to the
subjects, they may be distorted or
discolored by its heat and lighting.
• Do not cover the photo flash with your
fingers or any other items.
• While the flash is charged, the LCD
monitor turns off and you cannot take
pictures. The status indicator lights.
[Except when the AC adaptor
(DMW-AC1; optional) is used.]
If the remaining battery power is low,
the LCD monitor may be turned off for
longer time.
• When you take a picture beyond the flash
control range, the exposure may not be
adjusted properly and the picture may
become bright or dark.
• When you repeat taking a picture,
recording may be disabled even if the
flash is activated. Take a picture after the
access indication disappears.
• When the jitter alert appears, we
recommend using the flash.
• When you set to burst mode or auto
bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for
every flash activated.
• The flash icon turns red when activating
the flash and pressing the shutter button
halfway.
• When taking a picture with the flash, the
white balance will be automatically
adjusted [except for [ ] (Daylight)], but
the white balance may not be properly
adjusted if the flash level is insufficient.
• When the shutter speed is fast, the flash
effect may not be sufficient.
