    If the subject or background is dark, the camera flash
    will operate automatically.
    If a subject or background is dark, the camera flash
    will work automatically and will reduce the red-eye
    effect by using the red-eye reduction function.
    The flash fires regardless of available light. The
    intensity of the flash will be controlled, according to
    the prevailing conditions. The brighter the background
    or subject is, the less intense the flash will be.
    The flash will operate in conjunction with a slow
    shutter speed in order to obtain the correct exposure.
    When you take an image in a condition with poor
    light, the camera shake warning indicator
    (         ) will display on the LCD monitor.
    We recommend using a tripod for this function.
    The flash does not fire. Select this mode when
    capturing images in a place or situation where flash
    photography is prohibited. When you capture an
    image in a poorly lit condition, the camera shake
    warning indicator (         ) will display on the LCD

    longer.
    ƒDuring the continuous shot, AEB and movie clip mode, the flash function will
    not operate.
    ƒTake photographs within the flash range.
    ƒThe image quality is not guaranteed if the subject is too close or highly
    reflective.
