By default, the AF points light up in red when focus is achieved in low-
light conditions. In Creative Zone modes, you can set whether to have
the AF points light up in red when focus is achieved.
Under low-light conditions, when you press the shutter button halfway,
the built-in flash may fire a brief burst of flashes. This illuminates the
subject to help autofocusing.

The AF-assist beam will not be emitted with AI Servo AF operation.
The built-in flash makes a sound when firing continuously. This is normal
and not a malfunction.
The effective range of the AF-assist beam emitted by the built-in flash is
approx. 4 meters / 13.1 feet.
In Creative Zone modes, when you raise the built-in flash with the <

on the setting for [
