The camera has four flash modes (default setting is Auto Flash). Use
the flash when you take pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy
shadows.
When shooting
under these conditions:
Select
this mode
Flash Off
The flash does not fire. Use this setting for
outdoor pictures, or where flash is prohibited or
may be distracting, or when shooting towards a
reflective surface, such as a window or a mirror.
If there is not enough light when using this
setting, your pictures will be too dark.
The flash fires automatically as needed. Use this
setting to take most pictures.
Use this setting to avoid red glare in your
subject’s eyes. The camera fires a brief preflash
before the regular flash.
The flash fires for every picture. Use this setting
in high-contrast situations to provide fill-light or
use it indoors in low light.
