• 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.

• The white balance may not be properly 

adjusted if the flash level is insufficient. 
(P68)

• If you repeat taking a picture, it may not 

actually be taken even if the flash is 
activated. 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.

• 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 taking pictures in burst mode or 

auto bracket, only 1 picture is recorded for 
every flash activated.

• When you attach an external flash, it takes 

priority over the built-in flash. Refer to 
P105 for the external flash.

Adjust the flash output when the subject is 
small or reflection ratio is extremely high or 
low.
