30Basic Photography and Playback: Auto ModeUsing the FlashThe flash has a range of about #–#m (#in. –#ft.) when the camera is zoomed out all the way. With maximum optical zoom applied, the range is about #–#m (#in. –#ft.) (when ISO sensitivity is set to Auto). The following flash modes are available.Setting the Flash Mode1Press X (flash mode).The flash mode menu is displayed.2Use the rotary multi selector to choose the desired flash mode and press the k button.The icon for the selected flash mode is displayed at the top of the monitor.D will disappear after a few seconds, regardless of the Photo info option (A108).If a setting is not applied by pressing the k button within a few seconds, the selection will be cancelled.UAutoFlash fires automatically when lighting is poor.VAuto with red-eye reductionReduces “red-eye” in portraits (A31).WOffFlash will not fire even when lighting is poor.XFill flashFlash fires when a picture is taken. Use to “fill-in” (illuminate) shadows and backlit subjects.YSlow syncU (auto) is combined with slow shutter speed.Flash illuminates main subject; slow shutter speeds are used to capture background at night or under dim light.Flash mode26Q7115_25_UM_EN.book Page 30 Friday, May 30, 2008 2:32 PM31Using the FlashBasic Photography and Playback: Auto ModeBShooting When Lighting is Poor and the Flash is Disabled (W) •Use of a tripod is recommended to stabilize the camera during shooting and avoid the effects of camera shake. Turn vibration reduction (A110) off when using a tripod.•The E indicator is displayed when the camera automatically increases sensitivity. Pictures taken when E is displayed may be slightly mottled.•When E is displayed and higher sensitivity is applied, noise reduction may be automatically applied as pictures taken are recorded; results in increased recording times.BNote on Using the FlashWhen using the flash at a wide-angle zoom position, reflections from dust particles in the air may appear as bright spots in pictures. To reduce these reflections, set the flash mode to W (Off) or zoom in on the subject.CThe Flash LampThe flash lamp indicates flash status when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.•On: Flash will fire when picture is taken.•Blinks: Flash charging. Wait a few seconds and try again.•Off: Flash will not fire when picture is taken.If the battery is low, the monitor display will turn off, and remain off, until the flash is fully charged.CThe Flash Mode SettingThe default flash mode setting varies with shooting mode.•A (auto) mode: U Auto•C (scene): varies with the selected scene mode (A36)•x (scene auto selector): U Auto. The camera selects the flash mode depending upon the selected scene mode it has automatically selected (A45).•s (active child): W Off•a (smile): U AutoThe flash mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after the camera is turned off, and reapplied the next time A (auto) mode is selected.CRed-Eye ReductionThis camera uses advanced red-eye reduction (“In-Camera Red-Eye Fix”). The flash fires repeatedly at low intensity before the main flash, reducing red-eye. The camera then analyzes the picture; if red-eye is detected, the affected area will be processed to further reduce red-eye before the picture is saved. Note that because there is a slight lag between the shutter-release button being pressed and the picture being shot, this mode is not recommended when a quick shutter response is required. The time before the next picture can be shot also increases slightly. Advanced red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations. In extremely rare instances, areas not subject to red-eye may be affected by advanced red-eye reduction processing; in these cases, choose another mode and try again.Q7115_25_UM_EN.book Page 31 Friday, May 30, 2008 2:32 PMQ7115_25_UM_EN_1st
32Basic Photography and Playback: Auto ModeTaking Pictures with the Self-TimerThe camera is equipped with a ten-second and two-second timer for self-portraits.

Positive compensation may therefore be required to capture the brilliancy of very bright objects that fill the frame (for example, sunlit expanses of water, sand, or snow) or when the background is much brighter than the main subject. Negative compensation may be called for when large areas of the frame contain very dark objects (for example, a swath of dark green leaves) or when the background is much darker than the main subject.

86Shooting Options: The Shooting MenuShooting, Playback, and Setup MenusB White BalanceThe color of light reflected from an object varies with the color of the light source. The human brain is able to adapt to changes in the color of the light source, with the result that white objects appear white whether seen in the shade, direct sunlight, or under incandescent lighting. Digital cameras can mimic this adjustment by processing images according to the color of the light source. This is known as “white balance.” For natural coloration, choose a white balance setting that matches the light source before shooting. Although the default setting, Auto, can be used under most types of lighting, you can apply the white balance setting suited to a particular light source to achieve more accurate results.The effects of the selected option can be previewed in the monitor. At settings other than Auto, the icon for the current setting is displayed in the monitor (A6).BFlash ModeAt white-balance settings other than Auto or Flash, turn the flash off (W) (A30).aAuto (default setting)White balance automatically adjusted to suit lighting conditions.
