Snapshot Tutorial

NOTE

• Take care so your fingers and the strap do not block the flash.

• The desired effect may not be obtained when the subject is too far away or too

close.

• Flash charging time depends on operating conditions (battery condition, ambient

temperature, etc.) With a fully charged battery it takes anywhere from a few

seconds to 7 seconds.

• Shooting with flash turned off when lighting is dim results in a slow shutter speed,

which can cause image blur due to camera movement. Under such conditions,

secure the camera with a tripod, etc.

• With red eye reduction, the flash is fired automatically in accordance with

exposure. It does not fire in areas where lighting is bright.

• The presence of outdoor sunlight, fluorescent lighting, or some other light source

can cause abnormal image colors.

• Select “Flash Off” for the flash setting when shooting in areas where flash

photograph is prohibited.

• Approximate Flash Range (ISO Sensitivity: Auto)

Wide Angle: 0.15 m to 2.8 m (0.5' to 9.2')

Telephoto: 0.4 m to 1.5 m (1.3' to 4.9')

* The above values depend on the optical zoom setting.

Red-eye Reduction

Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the

eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash

reflects off of the retina of the eye. When red-eye reduction is selected as the flash

mode, the camera fires a pre-flash to cause the irises in the eyes of any people in the

image to close, which reduces the chance of red eye.

Note the following important points when using red-eye reduction.

• Red-eye reduction does not work unless the people in the image are looking

directly at the camera (flash).

• Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the subjects are located far away from

the camera.

Other Useful Flash Features

• Changing the flash intensity (page 60)

• Compensating for insufficient flash intensity (page 60)
