Setting the Flash

When taking pictures at night, indoors, or outdoors in heavy shadows, your pictures need flash. For everyday picture-taking, use the Auto setting. However, there are times when changing the flash option can improve your pictures. For instance, if you are taking pictures of people indoors or at night, you can help reduce the likelihood of red eye by using the Red-Eye setting. When your subject is outdoors under heavy shadows, you can eliminate those shadows by using the Fill flash. In situations where the use of flash is prohibited, as in museums, you can turn off the flash.

	Set the Mode dial to Capture. Slide the POWER switch to the right to turn on the camera.
	Press the FLASH button to scroll though the flash options. The Flash setting icon changes in the Status Display. Auto (No Icon)--fires the flash automatically when needed. The camera determines when there is not enough light.
	Off--turns off the flash.
	Fill--fires the flash every time you take a picture.
	Red-Eye--fires the flash once before the picture is taken, then fires again when the picture is taken. To return to the Auto setting, press the FLASH button, or turn off the camera.
