6. Stabilizer, Zoom and Flash
∫ The available flash range (approximation)
When you use certain lenses, light from the flash may be
blocked or fail to cover the lens field of view, causing dark
areas to appear in the resulting pictures.
The distance at which light from the flash is blocked by lens, and
the distance to which light from the flash is delivered vary
depending on the lens used. Check the distance to the subject
when taking a picture.
• These are the ranges when the ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] and [ISO Limit Set] (P190) is
set to [OFF].
Using the flash skillfully
• When taking pictures with flash with the lens hood attached, the lower portion of the photo
may turn dark and the control of the flash may be disabled because the photo flash may be
obscured by the lens hood. We recommend detaching the lens hood.

• Do not bring the flash too close to objects or close the flash while it is activated. The objects
may be discolored by its heat or lighting.
• Do not close the flash soon after the flash is activated prior to taking pictures due to Forced
ON/Red-Eye Reduction etc. It causes a malfunction.
• It may take time to charge the flash if you repeatedly take pictures. You must wait a moment to
take the next picture while the flash icon is blinking red indicating the flash is charging.
