• In [FLASH BURST] (P51) in Scene mode, the ISO sensitivity automatically switches to 

between [ISO100] and [ISO3200] and the available flash range also differs.

The shutter speed changes depending on the [STABILIZER] (P66) setting.

¢2 When Intelligent ISO is set (P61)
•

¢1, 2: The shutter speed becomes a maximum of 1 second in the following cases.
– When the Optical image stabilizer is set to [OFF].
– When the camera has determined that there is little jitter when the Optical image stabilizer is 

set to [MODE1], [MODE2] or [AUTO].

• In Intelligent auto mode, shutter speed changes depending on the identified scene.
• In Scene mode, shutter speed will be different from the above table.

• If you bring the flash too close to an object, the object may be distorted or discolored by the 

heat or lighting from the flash.

• When you take a picture beyond the available flash range, the exposure may not be adjusted 

properly and the picture may become bright or dark.

• When the flash is being charged, the flash icon blinks red, and you cannot take a picture even 

when you press the shutter button fully. When [AUTO LCD OFF] is set, the LCD monitor 
turns off and the status indicator lights.

• The white balance may not be properly adjusted if the flash level is insufficient for the subject.
• When the shutter speed is fast, the flash effect may not be sufficient.
• It may take time to charge the flash if you repeat taking a picture. Take a picture after the 

access indication disappears.

• The red-eye reduction effect differs between people. Also, if the subject was far away from the 

camera or was not looking at the first flash, the effect may not be evident.
