SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT
Using Flash Assist
The subject in an image will look too dark if flash intensity is not 
enough to reach a subject that is too far away. When this 
happens, you can use flash assist to supplement the brightness 
of the subject so it appears as if flash illumination was sufficient.
Flash assist is turned on as the initial factory default setting.
Use the following procedure to turn off flash assist when you do 
not want to use it.
1.
In a REC mode, press [MENU].
2.
On the “Quality” tab, select “Flash Assist” and 
then press [
X].
3.
Use [
S] and [T] to select “Off” and then press 
[SET].
When you want to use flash assist, select “Auto” here.
IMPORTANT!
• Flash assist may not produce the desired result for some 
types of subjects.
• Any of the following can result in the flash assist effect 
being canceled out.
– Changing the flash intensity (page 78)
– Correcting brightness (EV shift) (page 141)
– Changing ISO sensitivity (page 145)
– Changing the contrast setting (page 150)
