Various shooting functions
Flash shooting
Fill-in flash
The flash fires regardless of the light
conditions. This mode is useful for
eliminating shadows on the subject’s face
(such as shadows from tree leaves), in a
backlight situation, or for correcting the color
shift produced by artificial lighting (especially
fluorescent light).
● When the flash fires, the shutter speed is set to 1/180 sec. or less. When
shooting a subject against a bright background with the flash, the
background may be overexposed. In this case, use the optional FL-50/FL-36
external flash and set it to the Super FP flash mode.
Fill-in flash + Red-eye reduction flash
This mode makes it possible to fire the flash regardless of the light conditions and
also to reduce red-eye phenomenon.
Fill-in flash + Slow synchronization (2nd curtain) SLOW2
The flash fires regardless of the light conditions at the timing of the 2nd curtain.
