(Manual) OLYMPUS E-410 - Sensor Cleaning

Using the built-in flash
If you shoot a subject using a lens that is wider than 14 mm (equivalent to 28 mm on a 35 mm
film camera), the light emitted by the flash may produce a vignette effect. Whether or not
vignetting occurs also depends on lens type and shooting conditions (such as distance to the
subject).

This adjusts the amount of light emitted by the flash.
In some situations (e.g., when shooting small subjects, distant backgrounds, etc.), you may
get better results by adjusting light emission. It is useful when you intend to increase the
contrast (distinction between light and dark) of images to make the images more vivid.
