Built-in Video Flash (for DZ-HS303E only)
When recording photos in a dark place, or if the subject is lit from rear, the DZ-HS303E makes use of 
the built-in Video Flash for automatic brightening: The Video Flash can also be set to On where the 
light is always being emitted, or Off when you wish to record without using the flash even in a dark 
place.

See “Introduction to Optional Accessories” on 
page 136.

Note
:
• The built-in Video Flash setting will not change even 
when the DVD video camera/recorder is turned off. 
Unless recording is to be made with the fixed Flash 
setting, it is recommended to return it to “Auto” after 
recording with the “On” or “Off” setting, before turning 
the DVD video camera/recorder off.
• When recording dark subjects, the shutter speed will 
be slower, so don’t let the camera shake.
• However, dark subjects may not be in clear focus 
even if the Video Flash is used. It is recommended 
that you light a subject when recording in a dark 
place.
• The Video Flash built into DZ-HS303E cannot be 
used when a conversion lens is attached: Specify 
“Flash: Off”
• The distance for the built-in Video Flash to adjust the 
appropriate amount of light will vary depending on the 
subject, but it is approximately 1 – 2.5 m.
• The Video Flash automatically adjusts the amount of 
light emitted, but the light amount adjustment may be 
insufficient when a subject is too far away or too near.
• If you continuously record using the Flash, the Flash 
may not emit light or the amount of light may not be 
adjustable. After recording using the Flash, it is 
recommended that you wait for a few moments, 
before pressing the PHOTO/SELECT button to 
record.
• “ ( ” will blink during charging of the battery for Video 
Flash.
• While “ ( ” is flashing, the video flash will not emit 
light, though the DVD camera/recorder is recording.
• When recording a close-up photo, specify “Flash: 
Off”. Using the flash too near subject could cause a 
whitish image.
• Do not use the Video Flash when approaching the 
human eye. Emitting light from Video Flash near 
human eye could damage the subject’s eyesight. 
Especially when recording a baby or small child, 
move the DVD video camera/recorder at least 1 m 
away.
• Do not use the Video Flash while pointing it at a driver 
in vehicle: Doing so could dazzle the driver, causing 
an accident.
• Do not use the Video Flash in a place where there is 
flammable or explosive gas: Doing so could cause fire 
or explosion.
• When the DZ-FLH3 optional video flash is attached to 
DZ-HS303E, the built-in video flash in DZ-HS303E 
will not operate.
