Notes
• The recommended shooting distance of the built-in flash is 0.5 to 2.0 m (1 2/3 to 6 2/3 feet)
when [ISO] in the menu is [AUTO].
• Attaching a conversion lens (optional) may block the light from the flash and the shadow of the
lens may be recorded.
• Auto red-eye reduction may not produce the desired red-eye reduction effects depending on
individual differences, the distance to the subject, if the subject does not see the pre-strobe, or
other conditions.
• The flash effect is not obtained easily when you use forced flash in a bright location.
