AUTO
The flash light intensity is controlled automatically by measuring the 
amount of light through the auto light receptor. This mode uses the 
settings on the camera together with the settings on the electronic 
flash.

  The control panel shows the light control 
range according to the camera’s setup.
 The light control range is not displayed if 
the camera’s setup (ISO sensitivity and 
aperture value) does not match one of 
the usable ISO sensitivity/aperture value 
combinations. In this case, the [ISO] and 
[F] indicators blink to alert you. Change 
the camera’s setup (ISO sensitivity and/or 
aperture value).
