objects.
∫ Switching to the appropriate flash 
setting
Set the flash to match the recording.
Press 
1 [ ] to switch the flash 
setting.
• For information about flash settings that 
can be selected, refer to “Available flash 
settings by recording mode” (P40).

the recording conditions make it necessary.
: AUTO/Red-eye reduction
¢1
The flash is automatically activated when 
the recording conditions make it necessary.
It is activated once before the actual 
recording to reduce the red-eye 
phenomenon (eyes of the subject 
appearing red in the picture) and then 
activated again for the actual recording.
• Use this when you take pictures of 
people in low lighting conditions.
: Forced ON
The flash is activated every time regardless 
of the recording conditions.
• Use this when your subject is back-lit 
or under fluorescent light.
: Forced ON/Red-eye reduction
¢1
• The flash setting is set to Forced ON/
Red-eye reduction only when you set 
[PARTY] (P52) or [CANDLE LIGHT] 
(P52) in scene mode.
: Slow sync./Red-eye reduction
¢1
If you take a picture with a dark background 
landscape, this feature will slow the shutter 
speed when the flash is activated so that 
the dark background landscape will 
become bright. Simultaneously it reduces 
the red-eye phenomenon.
• Use this when you take pictures of 
people in front of a dark background.
: Forced OFF
The flash is not activated in any recording 
conditions.
• Use this when you take pictures in 
places where the use of the flash is not 
permitted.
¢1 The flash is activated twice. The 
subject should not move until the 
second flash is activated.
