Built-in Flash

The Built-in Flash
Use
with
CPU
lenses
with
focal lengths
of
18mm
to
300mm
or non-CPU lenses
with
focal lengths
of
18mm
to
200mm. Restrictions on focal length and shooting distance may apply
with
some lenses.
See
"Optional Accessories"
(~
145)
for details. Remove lens hoods
to
prevent shadows. The flash
has
a
minimum
range
of
60cm
(2ft.) and cannot be used in the macro range
of
macro zoom
lenses.
If the flash fires
in
continuous release
mode
(~
54),
only one photograph will be taken each
time
the shutter-release
button
is
pressed.
The shutter release may be briefly disabled
to
protect the flash after it
has
been used for several
consecutive shots. The flash can be used again after a short pause.
For information on optional flash units (Speedlights),
see
"Optional
Flash
Units (Speedlights)"
(~
150).
In
p,
5, A, and M modes, flash
output
is
controlled using flash compensation
(~68).
Output
of
the built-in flash
can
be adjusted manually from Custom Setting
14
(Built-in flash;
~

Flash
Mode
Setting
The default flash setting for Digital Vari-Program modes
is
automatically restored when the
mode
dial
is
rotated
to
a
new
setting or the camera
is
turned off.

Rear-Curtain Sync
Normally the flash fires
as
the shutter opens ("front curtain sync";
see
below
at left).
In
rear-curtain
sync, the flash fires just before the shutter closes, creating
the
effect
of
a stream
of
light behind
moving subjects.
