Taking pictures with flash
Changing Flash Mode
Recording mode:
Set the flash to match the recording.
→ [Rec] → [Flash] → [Flash Mode]
: [Forced Flash On]
: [Forced On/Red-Eye]
The flash is activated every time regardless of the recording
conditions.
• Use this when your subject is back-lit or under
fluorescent light.
: [Slow Sync.]
: [Slow Sync./Red-Eye]
Takes brighter pictures such as pictures of subjects against a
nightscape by decreasing the shutter speed when firing a flash.
• Ideal for taking pictures of people against a nightscape.
• Using a slower speed can cause motion blur. We
recommend using a tripod.
The flash is activated twice. The interval between the first and second flash is
longer when [ ] or [ ] is set. The subject should not move until the second
flash is activated.
• The red-eye reduction effect varies depending on the subject and is affected by factors
such as distance from the subject and whether the subject is looking at the camera
during the preliminary flash. In some cases, red-eye reduction may be negligible.
