D Using the Built-in Flash
If the subject is on the side of the frame and you use flash, the subject
may turn out to be too bright or dark depending on the background, etc.
Use FE lock in such a case. After setting the flash output for the
appropriate subject brightness, you can recompose (put the subject
toward the side) and shoot. This feature can also be used with a Canon
EX-series Speedlite.
* FE stands for Flash Exposure.
