4 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. 56 Note
